One of my favourite places to go is a conservation area not too far from where we live. There you’ll find a small historical homestead that has been turned into a museum, and acres and acres of forest, trails, ponds and fields. We love to explore, search for wildlife, walk the trails and let the kids and the dog run. I designed these hats with this place as my inspiration. It is luxurious in weight, texture and style. A perfect fall and winter accessory while walking through the woods.
