My name is Erle Rander.
Making headgers is my work and hobby. I like this work. After graduating from school in 1996, I started working as a hatmaker. I learned hatmaking from experienced hatmakers and my own experiences. I keep myself informed with the field via the Internet, by reading specialised literature and experimenting with new tehniques based on it. I try to walk around with my eyes open, in order to be informed with what my competitors are doing and look at the current trends and materials. In the hat workshop Ardiisia, I would like to offer headgear that is beautiful, interesting, unique and of high quality.
