The Popia Hope Hat is from a women-run micro-business. Using Organic Wool yarns from New England dyers and spinners who adhere to strict environmental guidelines. Popia hats are knit in Vermont from hand manipulated knitting machines, and waste yarn, not that there is very much of it, is composted, for a minimal environmental footprint, and a maximum of cozy warmth. A cozy medium gauge knit with a double layer brim for extra warmth around your ears, the Hope Hat has an 8” height for slouchy style and a round pom on top. “Hope is from their “Four Letter Word” collection of single, powerful, words. To quote from Emily Dickenson: “Hope is the thing with feathers / That perches in the soul / And sings the tune without the words / And never stops at all.” There’s just something about a nice, warm, wool hat that brings about the winter cozies and just makes you want to sip a mug of coffee, tea, or cocoa by the fire. When you’re in the Popia Hope Hat, you’ll have the look and the feel to do just that. If you’re looking for a home-grown company and product that exceeds comfort and quality expectations, look no further than the Popia Hope Hat. As a premium product with a strong demand, these hats will likely not last long, so get yours soon before the snow flies!
