The Snowshoe Hare Hat is knit in the round with a thick n thin yarn, then lined with hand felted angora rabbit wool to cuddle the ears. The result is soft, warm and completely itch free.

The Snowshoe Hare Hat can be bought as a kit which includes the pattern with three hat designs: Ribbed Hem, Rolled Brim, and Earflap as well as a strip of hand felted angora rabbit fabric.

You can also buy just the pattern, or just the angora to line your other hats and projects.

A portion of the proceeds of these hat kits is donated to the Glacier National Park Fund to further ongoing research on Snowshoe hares.
