WELCOME to Isobel Robinson (formerly Lillibets Millinery) on Folksy. I'm delighted to be featured alongside the talented artisan makers of the UK and hope you enjoy browsing my designs.

When designing this hat, I couldn't resist pairing two of the most renowned British fabrics. Harris Tweed is handwoven by islanders on the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. It is so desirable that in 1993 an Act of Parliament was passed to protect the traditional manufacturing process, ensuring that each length of Harris Tweed fabric was made of 100% pure new wool which is spun and woven on looms within the islanders home. It remains the only fabric in the world to be protected by an Act of Parliament, and has to be inspected before getting the 'orb' mark of approval! Surely that deserved to be paired with another luxurious fabric - the gorgeous Liberty tana lawn. First produced in the 1930s and now one of the most sought after cottons due its incredibly fine weave and silk-like feel.

Full description

Newsboy cap handmade in Harris Tweed wool and lined with Liberty of London tana lawn cotton. This stylish 8-panel hat is such a versatile accessory for autumn and winter - just pop it on for an instant lift. Perfect for country pursuits or just looking fabulous around town.

Each hat is handmade to order and is finished with a hand-stitched band seam for a flawless finish.

COLOUR

This style couples a caramel brown Harris Tweed fabric with Poppy Forest Liberty tana lawn.

SIZING

A classic 8-panel baker boy hat with central button and peak, the hat is suitable for both men and women and is also available in child sizes on request. To find your size, measure around your head where you wish the hat band to sit. If you tuck your ears into your hat, make sure to measure around your ears too. Don't pull too tight as you want a secure yet comfortable fit! The sizes given correspond to the hat band measurement, so is the largest possible head size that will fit, though I recommend choosing a size 1/4" larger than your head measurement for the most comfortable fit.

MADE TO ORDER

Lillibets Millinery is run solely by me, Isobel Robinson, from my home studio in Yorkshire. Each design is handmade with great care and attention to detail which can't be rushed. The current turnaround time for my Harris Tweed hats is between 1-2 weeks, but if you do need it sooner please get in touch as I may be able to prioritise your order.

Designed by Isobel Robinson in Yorkshire
