100% handmade Tunisian chechia The traditional chechia is made of combed wool knitted by the women who make the kabbou hats. The latter are sent to the treading: they are wet with hot water and soap and trodden under foot by men in order to soak them, so much so that the stitches of the knitwear almost disappear. Then comes the treatment of the thistle, which is used for carding or combing the hat, in order to transform the felt into downy velvet. However, more and more often, the thistle is replaced by a wire brush. It is at this stage of manufacture that the chechia is tinted with its famous vermilion red color although we now find more varied colors.

Chechia tunisienne 100% fait-main
La chéchia traditionnelle est faite de laine peignée tricotée par les femmes qui confectionnent les bonnets kabbous. Ces derniers sont envoyés au foulage : ils sont mouillés avec de l'eau chaude et du savon et foulés aux pieds par des hommes afin de les détremper, à tel point que les mailles du tricot disparaissent presque. Vient alors le traitement du chardon, qui sert au cardage ou peignage du bonnet, afin de transformer le feutre en velours duveté. Cependant, de plus en plus souvent, le chardon est remplacé par une brosse métallique. C'est à ce stade de la fabrication que la chéchia est teintée de sa célèbre couleur rouge vermillon bien qu'on en trouve désormais de couleurs plus variées.
