Kidka - Wool Hat - Blue Puffins

Kidka “Lundi” puffin beanie in blue · Icelandic wool with a cotton earband · one size · knitted in Iceland

Sale price$78.90

For the person who came home from Iceland still talking about puffins: a row of the birds around a brushed, muted-blue hat that is warm enough for a windy harbour and soft enough to keep on all day. A gift that needs no head measuring.

What you get

  • Puffins with orange-red beaks and feet knitted into the brim of a blue hat, not printed or embroidered on
  • Brushed Icelandic wool: Kidka washes, brushes and steams every hat so the surface is soft and fluffy from the first wear
  • A cotton band on the inside where the hat meets your ears and forehead, so the wool never sits directly on the skin there
  • One size, which Kidka calls “one fits most”: nothing to measure before you order

Why you'll love it

  • Wool from Icelandic sheepTwo kinds of fibre in one fleece: long outer hairs that shed wind and drizzle, fine inner ones that trap warm air. Brushed up, that inner fibre is what keeps a light hat warm.
  • Made in a factory you can visitKidka knits in its own factory in Hvammstangi, five minutes off Road 1 in North Iceland, with a shop at the front where visitors watch the machines through the window.
  • The puffin gift that fits everyoneOne size, light, and the bird every Iceland traveller remembers: an easy present for someone who has been, or is about to go.
  • Part of a setKidka knits the same puffins on the same blue into a scarf and a pair of wrist warmers, so the set can grow one piece at a time.

Questions people ask before they buy

Is the inside soft against the skin?
Yes. Kidka knits a cotton band inside the hat at the ears and forehead, exactly where a wool hat usually rubs, and brushes the wool itself so the surface is a fluffy halo rather than a hard knit.
Will it fit me?
It comes in one size, which Kidka describes as “one fits most”. The knit stretches to the head rather than coming in sizes, for women and men alike.
Which blue is it?
A muted blue with a touch of grey in it, as in the first photo: not a navy and not a bright royal blue. The puffins are black and white with orange-red beaks and feet. Kidka knits the same hat in beige and in red.
Who makes it?
Kidka, a wool factory in Hvammstangi in North-West Iceland that designs, knits and sews its own pieces from Icelandic wool spun and dyed in Iceland. The same factory knits the puffin scarf and wrist warmers that match this hat.
How often does it need washing?
Seldom. Icelandic wool is a natural fibre that airs fresh between wears, so hang it up rather than wash it. When it does need a wash, follow the care line above: lukewarm hand wash or a 30 °C wool programme, then flat to dry.
