Hoodrats are made by Trillium Artisans member Alyssa Kail of Birdface.
They provide protection against the wind, rain, and cold. Plus, they're pretty.
Hoodrats are made from recycled and reclaimed fabrics and repurposed clothing.
This one features a gorgeous red fabric, lined with a delicately flowered vintage calico.
Tie on a Hoodrat when you don't have a hood!
Made in a smoke-free studio.
This is an adult sized hood and will fit most adults.

Trillium Artisans is a nonprofit community economic development organization that supports low-income crafters in the city of Portland, Oregon, USA, who create handmade items using a minimum of 50% recycled or reclaimed materials.
Alyssa started sewing out of necessity on her mom's dusty, old sewing machine. In high school, her best friend's mother was manager of the thrift store in their small Pennsylvania town, which meant they had the pick of the litter. Overrun with misshapen treasures, Alyssa began tearing apart and recreating, and hasn't looked back since.
Alyssa hates to see anything thrown away and gets great satisfaction in making the old new again. Sustainability is her drive and she is committed to creating quality and practical pieces with a healthy helping of retro, fun, and one-of-a-kind.
Thank you for looking at Alyssa's Hoodrat, and please see our other listings for more gifts, accessories, and decor items made from recycled materials. Indie crafts with a green twist!
