About Us
The Hide and Hair team was originally composed of Pam, Randy, and their daughter Kirsten. The team has since expanded to welcome Matt to the business and the family. A love of working with your hands was instilled in Kirsten at a very young age by both Randy and Pam. When Kirsten was ten, Pam signed them up for a local spinning class (wool, not bicycles!) and with that introduction to the fiber arts, both women started on a path that would lead here, to this Etsy shop. Both push themselves and each other to try new patterns, new techniques, and even new hobbies. Working together, they often infuse elements of Randy's leatherworking into their hand-knit and hand-sewn items. Matt's knowledge of gemstones and a keen eye for color combinations are an incredible resource that Kirsten relies on heavily.

Why Hide and Hair?
The name Hide and Hair comes from Randy's use of leather and Pam and Kirsten's use of wool - they really use the hide and the hair of critters!

What is your Process?
A family of perfectionists, Pam and Kirsten have been known to restart projects several times over to get it just right, and test products vigorously before placing them on the market. Randy researches his patterns extensively to ensure their historical accuracy, or at least to recognize the liberties he may be taking with that accuracy. Matt has a thirst for knowledge that has led him deep into the world of gemstones. Stop by and see what we have in store for you, or drop us a line if you are looking for a one of a kind custom order!
