Pilkahdus Hohto Hood

About

This plum colored Pilkahdus Hohto Hood is hand-knitted by Myssy Grannies in Pöytyä Finland from 100% Finnsheep wool. The yarn is hand-dyed and due to the dyeing process there may be a slight variation in the colors. Its soft Finnsheep wool surface has been carded with traditional methods here in Pöytyä.

Once upon a time there was a very special winter weather that made everything shimmer in a soft light surrounded by a rare winter mist. On an exceptionally cold day like this you should wrap yourself in a soft and fluffy woolly hood that is hand-knitted and traditionally geared here in Pöytyä. And if you wondered what does this word hohto mean, it means shimmer in Finnish. So shine and shimmer like the fields of Aura river valley!

Production

All of our garments are made from Finnsheep wool, produced in conjunction with our responsible partners. Similar in softness to Merino, the fiber's overlapping scales point inward making the yarn particularly soft, and in our opinion, there is no finer wool in the world!

High quality garments and accessories are hand-knit by local retired ladies known as The Myssy Grannies. These cheerful ladies are the essence of our brand, knitting their own positive energy and wisdom into every stitch, even hand signing each Myssy piece they finish.

Size

This Myssy product is One Size (M) and it fits 85% of our customers. It fits well for hat sizes between 54 to 59 cm. Each Myssy is unique, and though all our grannies work off from the same size chart, not all hats are precisely the same.

All Myssy hats should feel a little tight in the beginning, the hat adjusts to the size and shape of your head within the first week of use.

If you are unsure of the size or you know you will need larger size, you can always leave a comment while sending your order in and let us know you would like to have a bigger variation. We will do our best to take this into account!
