singular felted hats

My name is Sharon Henderson and I make felted hats. I love colors and textures and I’m not afraid to experiment with shape and proportion. I hope you’ll love wearing them as much as I love making them.

Care Instructions

  • If your felt hat develops pills you can pluck or shave them off, just like with your favorite sweater.
  • Soiling can be removed by wiping with a damp cloth or rinsing gently in cold water. Light soap is ok but be sure to rinse it out.
  • Wool is resistant to dirt because the small scales on the surface of the fiber hold the dirt near the surface, making the dirt easier to remove.
  • Wool also repels odors. Due to its moisture content, wool is resistant to static electricity.
  • Wool can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture.
  • Wool is an insulator as opposed to trapping heat. As an insulator, it keeps you warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather.
  • The waviness or crimp of wool fiber gives it a natural elasticity and makes it very durable as the fiber can be bent multiple times without breaking.
  • Wool has the ability to felt. Due to the small scales on the surface of the wool fiber, the crimp, wool when combined with warm water, soap and a little agitation will matt together in an irreversible process called felting.
