The Field Hat is knitted from mixed alpaca wool and finished with felted wool in unique patterns.

Handmade in London.

April Mai is the founder and creator of London-based The Backward Vendor. April is all about the handmade process and looking to craft and tradition in her approach to design. She uses only raw and naturally dyed materials in her clothing, bags, shoes, and home goods. There is no uniformity to the The Backward Vendor - goods may be made only once or twice - dependent on the spirit and the direction of the time and material sourcing.
