In the 1940s Norwegians made and wore red pointed hats with a tassel as a form of visual protest against Nazi occupation of their country. Within two years the Nazis made these protest, hats, illegal, and punishable by law to wear make or distribute. The hats have now become popular again. I have purchased the pattern which donates to the cause.
Melt The Ice Hat is a modern nod to a powerful historical symbol of resistance. This hand knit Peruvian highland wool hat serves as a statement piece that honors the spirit of protest. Must be hand washed and dry flat, not machine washable. Do not iron or use a dryer. Wear it with pride and make your voice heard.
