- The Fernwood Story
Why and How it all Began
Growing up cashmere was like gold. My mom was obsessed with it. She would never get rid of her cashmere, regardless of how dated or worn it was. She would always find it a new home or purpose.
When our son Isaac surprised us arriving a month early, in the coldest winter in almost eighty years, it was recommended he wear a toque around the clock. The toques available for his tiny head did not fit properly and were not cozy. At the time I was living in my mom’s hand-me down cozy cashmere sweaters. Who doesn’t love being snuggled in cashmere, while snuggling a baby? I thought, I need to wrap Isaac in this. That is when I started sewing.
My Husband Logan and I both grew up on Prince Edward Island (PEI). We have both been living in Calgary for almost 14 years. We are lucky to call Calgary and PEI home. Fernwood is the boulevard where I grew up and where I visit my parents when we are on PEI.
I am committed to creating long lasting cashmere toques that are sustainably, ethically, and locally made with style & comfort at their forefront.
Please play and explore in your FW toque, unsnap the pompom and wash with care when required. When your little one has outgrown their FW toque, please pass it on!
