ITEM Santa Charity Hat

Inspired by the outfit of one of the most well known figures around the world, who brings us and more importantly children, unconditional joy and happiness every year. We thought it would be fitting to donate all proceeds from selling this hat to Able Child Africa.

We will also be participating in the London Marathon to raise awareness for Able Child if you feel extra generous please feel free to support the cause through our just giving page www.justgiving.com/page/heimat any amount small or big will help immensly.

There are estimated to be 29 million children in East and Southern Africa living with a disability. Able Child exists to change this. Able Child support a network of African organisations to protect, educate and amplify the voices of children and young people with disabilities.

We hope to grow this project with time and will keep updating you on our progress.

Keep warm.

Borrowed, as most things in a man's wardrobe from military uniforms, the Pompom (18th Century French word bombe is a hat decoration of a knot of ribbons) adorned soldiers' hats as a way of differentiating regiments on the battlefield.

This hat originates from hats worn by fishermen and naval sailors throughout history. The Bobble was added to Wool Hats to protect sailors from low-hanging beams under deck.
The Hat has an 8,5cm 1 1/2 fold to give you that extra warmth when worn.

It is hand-finished, and due to the sophisticated knitting technique, it will mold to your head just after a few wears. Keep your head safe.
