Working with husky hair has been a
dream for Miriam for many,
many years. That dream become a reality in 2007 with the purchase of
her first spinning wheel, a wonderful gift from her husband James.
Carding, spinning
and knitting the fur helps develop an
inner peace that wipes away the stress of the work day and wearing
these wonderful creations carry that peace within
them as only natural fibers can.
____________________________
Each spring our huskies
shed the warmth of their winter coat while
we brush and collect the fiber to make our beautiful creations.
We prefer to work with the natural shedding process trusting
that mother nature knows the best time to let go of this precious
fiber.
We do not shave or cut our huskies fur.
Our dogs love to sit for extended grooming sessions.
Shedding time is a highlight for many of our huskies. It is a relaxing
time
of bonding for dog and musher alike. ____________________________________________________________
Our kennel's
genetic line carries back to the old time freight dogs of the gold
rush. They carry the
heavy soft undercoat that allows them to stay toasty warm in the
coldest Alaskan winter. This double
insulated coat is perfect for making our hats and will be the warmest
garment you will ever own!

Our husky hair hats are made with care and the process is never rushed.
Each stage is important and no two hats are ever alike.
Due to the time it takes to create them, our quantities are limited.
Our husky hair hats and headbands are available exclusively through this website and the Yukon
Quest cabin in Fairbanks, Alaska. ____________________________
Custom orders are welcome and may be tailored to size
and style.
The pattern of color cannot be guaranteed due to the
uniqueness of our
husky fiber. ____________________________
We do not dye any of our hats or
fiber.
All colors and variations are completely natural.
Due to the high demand for our husky
products we have now opened up
