About Us

Who are we?

Hello, I’m Brooke, the owner and founder of Hare & Hunter.

As a proud mum to my daughter, Hattie, living on a sheep and beef farm in the rural Rangitīkei region has been the inspiration behind Hare & Hunter. Our way of life on the farm sparked a passion to create timeless knitwear that not only celebrates New Zealand’s wool industry but also brings warmth, comfort, and lasting quality to little Kiwi wardrobes.

At the heart of Hare & Hunter are classic, thoughtfully designed garments inspired by the beauty of the countryside. While we’re known for our signature earthy and neutral palette, we’ve also introduced a carefully curated range of beautiful colours, allowing families to choose pieces that reflect their own style while staying true to our timeless aesthetic.

Every garment is handcrafted using premium New Zealand merino wool, renowned for its softness, warmth, and durability. Today, Hare & Hunter operates exclusively through our Custom Collection, with each piece individually hand knitted to order by our talented team of local knitters. This allows us to focus on exceptional craftsmanship, ensuring every garment is made with care and designed to be treasured for years to come.

Thank you for supporting handmade New Zealand craftsmanship and the incredible women behind every stitch.
