  • Wool is a hygroscopic material, which means that the hair, even after prolonged wear, the caps remain clean and have a neat appearance.
  • For the production of wool is not required to kill animals, unlike fur. Wool is obtained by cutting or combing.
  • Wool has a very low thermal conductivity, which means that even in very cold weather you will be warm.
  • The ability to take the necessary form does not cause problems when storing a wool cap.

When using thick wool in the creation of headgear, embossed models with beautiful patterns are obtained. The relevance of these caps is already that season is kept at a high level. Among all the variety of patterns available, the "bumps", "pigtails", and "ladders" are relevant. In addition to such headdresses, scarves and snoods are requested, which should be selected according to the pattern or color.

Wool turbans - a completely new direction in the fashion worldwhich was borrowed from oriental culture. Not all girls can choose such accessories. Such an original headdress will decorate a girl with thin and neat features faces.

Wool also creates berets that go beyond the classics. With the help of the decor, the beret can turn into a youth or even a sports headdress. Although the classic monophonic and concise models remain still relevant. They fit perfectly into classic and business looks.

Sports hats can be embodied in the form of a wool knitted strip or cap with a visor. These hats are ideal for a sports jacket or a short down jacket.

Types of wool

The quality of wool largely depends on which animal it was taken from. For caps most often taken the following options for wool.

  • Camel's wool allows you to create warm, very light and durable products. Due to the porous fibers, the caps are practically weightless. Moreover, such wool does not wear out for a long time and does not even roll.
  • Yak wool and down - one of the warmest materials, so these caps can be worn in the most severe frosts.
  • Angora It is obtained from the hairs taken from the coat of the Angora rabbit. This wool is very soft and gentle, perfectly warms and envelops you with comfort. Most models of hats, created from angora, are universal and can be used in many images.
  • Sheep's wool is the most affordable, besides the caps of this material can be worn for several seasons. This headgear will be warm in any weather.
  • Much appreciated Alpaca wool. This material is also wear-resistant, but differs from the previous wool in its soft structure and higher abilities to retain heat.
  • Cashmere - Another type of wool, which is actively used to create caps. Such products are different from the rest of the fine structure, softness and low thermal conductivity. No matter how good cashmere is, it requires special care and careful wear. But in this case, no one guarantees that cashmere hats enough for several seasons. If you choose a hat from such wool, then you should look for the Scottish version of this material. This hat will be worn a little longer.
  • Merino wool It is quite expensive, but such a hat will not be pricked. Such material is obtained by shearing a special breed of sheep.

Composition

Modern manufacturers have learned so skillfully to combine wool with artificial materials that it is visually difficult to find the difference between headdresses with different compositions. It is clear that a hat which contains 100% wool will warm much better. If you buy such a product is not possible, you should give preference to the model in which the ratio of wool will be greatest.

For winter, you should not choose a hat, which includes 50% acrylic and more. 30% polyester is also not the best option. If the cap contains only 20% wool or 70% polyester, it will not be very warm. In short, the more wool, the better, but not less than half should be occupied by natural material.

What to do if a wool hat has sat down or stretched out?

If the cap is stretched, it must be placed for 10 minutes in very hot water without adding powder. After such a soak it is necessary to wash the product without friction and push-ups. Now it's time for a cold soak for about 20 minutes. The principle of such manipulation is based on the ability of wool things to sit when exposed to hot water. Cold water will fix the result. The cap should not be twisted, it should dry naturally. To do this, let it drain and place the product on a towel.

If the cap has become several sizes smaller, then it should be placed in cold water for about 10 minutes. After that, gently and easily need to squeeze water. Now we choose an object that, in its shape and size, resembles a head, for example, a bank. We stretch the cap on it and leave it to dry completely.

Another way to add wool elasticity is to soak in water with the addition of hydrogen peroxide. At 10 liters enough 2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide. The cap must be soaked in this mixture for an hour.

Images

  • Look at this snow-white openwork model that looks very tender and romantic. For winter, such a hat will not be suitable due to its openwork structure, but for the fall, spring and off-season will be just right. The color of the headdress perfectly harmonizes with the color type of the model.

  • The following image is warmer and suitable for winter. The combination of milk and gentle run, in which the patterns are made, looks gentle and concise.The cap is complemented by a scarf, which is made in the same color and repeats the headdress patterns. Dark hair favorably shade a bright headdress, creating a harmonious image.
