A warm, embroidered hat for every chilly bus stop and drafty porch.

Folk art you can pull over your ears: that's the idea behind these handknit wool hats from Nepal, each covered in hand embroidery so no two are exactly alike. Olivia is stitched with a botanical pattern over much of the knit, in Brown or Grey, with a soft fleece lining. Sadie brings a scalloped edge and colorful flowers over a softly patterned knit, fleece lined too, with matching mittens. Mathilde rings the brim with embroidered flowers and tops it with a pom-pom, in Mint, Natural, or Mulberry.

Olivia and Mathilde come in one size, so there's no chart to puzzle over and no guessing whose head it will fit. A warm hat for anyone with a cold walk, a chilly bus stop, or a drafty porch.

Brand story

Ash & Rose

Ash & Rose began with a mother, a daughter, and a pile of vintage nobody wanted to part with. Around 2010, Mary and Nea Savoca started selling their own vintage finds online. By 2014 they had a website, and by 2015 a boutique in Boston's South End. Then a flood closed that shop at the start of the pandemic. They didn't sit still. They teamed up with home sewers and donated about 5,000 masks to people experiencing homelessness.

Today Ash & Rose works from a studio in an old mill building in Framingham. Nea turns vintage and designer deadstock fabric into one-of-a-kind purses. Their candles are hand-poured from soy wax with botanical fragrances. The rest comes from fair trade partners, like the women artisans in Peru who weave and embroider the wool belts.

Their motto is Ethical + Sustainable + Beautiful, and Mary puts it plainly: "If I'm going to be putting something out into the world, I want it to be making the world better and not worse."

Universally designed pretty things, made with care, for everyone.
