Would make a great Christmas gift, or who needs an occasion? A good headband/ear warmer is a very useful garment for anyone. My homemade 100% merino wool headbands/ear warmers cover the back of the neck and the ears fully. They are about the thickness of a thinner sweater, doubled. They are not bulky or itchy. I sew them myself, and occasionally, my daughters help me in the dyeing process.
About the wool: Baby-soft 100% merino wool interlock, 12-ounce. This wool is certified Oeko-Tex Standard 100. In order to receive the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification, a cloth must undergo tests for harmful substances and be found to pose no risk whatsoever to health. The wool is completely manufactured in the USA. The manufacturer could even identify the ranch where the sheep are from, if we wanted!
one size fits all
available colors: black, dark olive brown
Price: $15, includes FREE shipping & handling in the US.

Care Instructions
To wash: Hand wash in cool water or use the wool cycle on a front-loading washing machine. Lay flat to dry. Preferred detergent: Kookaburra Wool Wash.
It is normal for your 100% merino wool ear warmer to stretch out after many wearings. Wash and lay flat to dry and it will spring back into shape.
Just received my package and the headbands are really lovely – gorgeous quality, and colours, I am now envious of the 2 friends for whom they are Christmas presents, so I will be ordering from you again in the NY.
Thanks again for your very nice personal service.
I’m so happy you’re pleased! Let me know if I can ever help you in the future.
Love, Wardeh
Have you considered making neck warmers (wide enough to pull up over the lower half of the face if necessary)? I am looking for something like that in quality merino…
Yes, I would consider that! Let me do some experimenting and I’ll write back to you within a day or two. Thanks for the inquiry! Love, Wardeh
