A blend, a coarse fibre, a patched-up yarn — colour covers all of it. Leave the fleece undyed and there is nothing between you and the fibre.

Natural fibre varies a little between batches, and slight variation within a single hat is normal — that variation is the evidence it was never dyed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHand-wash cool with a little cashmere shampoo, or dry-clean.
