Put a Highland Cow hat on your head and bring cheer wherever you go!
Our Highland cow hat is available knitted in either soft acrylic yarn or luxurious Italian merino wool.
Cow hat
The design features a Highland Cow face, repeated four times, with fun candy cane horns framed by a wooden fence. The hats are available in Charcoal grey, Forest green, Burgundy, Navy blue and Mid blue, each with vibrant striped horns.
This bobble hat will fit most heads, as the rib on the turn up hugs your head. We knit each hat with a double layer of yarn throughout, for added warmth and durability. There is no need for additional fleece lining in our cosy knitted hats.
Merino wool
Merino wool is a fibre with one of the tightest coils from any breed of sheep. The structure of the wool fibre makes it breathable, water repellent and hypoallergenic. As wool is a sustainable fibre, it regenerates every year on the sheep. Finally, in years to come, wool will degrade naturally, leaving no trace on the earth.
We source our Merino wool from Yeoman Yarns. It is sourced from non-mulesed sheep, which is processed and spun in Italy.
You can wash this hat in the washing machine at 30 degrees. We recommend turning it inside out to protect the hand-sewn pompom. Do not tumble dry.
Acrylic yarn
This type of yarn is a soft, durable, man-made fibre. Acrylic yarn is not as warm as wool, but it does provide a good barrier of protection. For people with very sensitive skin, this is a good choice as it will not cause irritation. This also makes it a great choice for vegans, as there is no animal trace in it.
This hat is very easy to care for. Although we don’t advise washing your hats regularly, this one can go into the washing machine with other clothing at 30 degrees. Do not tumble dry or iron.
