The Parkland Headband

The Parkland Headband is a close-fitting wool ear warmer with an all-over geometric colourwork pattern, made to hold in warmth without the bulk of a full toque. Designed as part of the Traceable Textiles x Marty Lynn collaboration, it is knit in Alberta from traceable Canadian wool and made to sit snugly over the ears, whether worn on its own, with a ponytail or over a ball cap. Its pattern is created from the natural grey-brown, and cream shades of undyed wool, bringing together practical winter wear, local fibre, and small-scale Canadian production. This headband fits a head circumference of 20-25".

Production begins in October, with orders expected to ship between October and December.
