This 100% Organic cotton bunny hat is in excellent condition. There are no stains and no loose threads or holes. The weave of the material makes the hat stretch well and still return to its original size and shape. And yes, the ears stand up when it's tied. :-D Washed exclusively in Molly's Suds nontoxic detergent Please consider a bundle with other eco/skin-friendly, nicely cared-for garments from my closet. Thank you for looking!
