Materials:
This product is made using 100% upcycled yarn from a thrifted sweater (51.4% wool, 23.49% polyester, and 20.23% polyamide) . We source our materials from local thrift stores, where we carefully select gently used knitwear with holes, stains, rips or other damage. The sweaters get washed, unraveled by hand, and then re-spooled to be used in future products.
By purchasing items made using repurposed materials, you are participating in a circular economy! Making use of existing materials before producing new ones is truly one of our favourite sustainability practices here at maritime moose.

"I am beyond impressed with the work Pam did on our matching family hats. I gave her an old sweater that I would NEVER wear again and almost donated... and she turned it into three beautiful toques for us. They were completely refurbished and looked BRAND NEW. I am so thrilled with how they turned out. The love & effort put into our hats was truly shown through her work. We highly recommend Pam & maritime moose! You wil not be disappointed!" - Courtney Ferguson
"I am IN LOVE with this hat" - Stef Mellon
