Recycled mink fur toque

Recycled mink strip beanie

Do you love the softness and elegance of fur, but prefer a more classic style? This beanie is for you. It has the presence of a high-end accessory without being overly flamboyant.

I work the mink strips one by one through the base of the beanie, much like knitting. Their arrangement creates a lovely diagonal checkerboard pattern and gives the fur full texture. Each piece is unique.

Supple and comfortable, the beanie is breathable and can be worn without feeling overheated. I have only made a few for this year's collection: if you like it, don't wait too long!

Note: the fur comes from old mink coats or new scraps from coat manufacturing. I give it a new life by transforming it, one strip at a time, in my ArtAbaska studio.
