Handmade knit beanies and mindfully curated adventure goods
that give back and get you outside!
Let’s get outside and create a more inclusive outdoors.
Do you care about our planet as much as you enjoy spending time outdoors? I’m here to inspire you to connect with nature, go on adventures, and make the outdoors a safe and inclusive place for everyone. By connecting with the outdoors, we can understand the importance of protecting our planet and cherishing its wild places.
Smeeny Made Wild is inspired by outdoor adventures and life in my little mountain town of Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Made with you (and the planet) in mind, each beanie is made with ethical and sustainable natural fibers and made to be both functional AND stylish.
Create Positive Change.
Giving Back
Every purchase gives back to the planet…1% of all revenue is donated to Protect Our Winters. Smeeny Made Wild additionally donates to organizations supporting LGBTQIA+ rights, women’s rights, and racial equality as they intersect with environmental justice.
Ethical and Sustainable
Every knit item is handmade with 100% ethically and sustainably sourced wools. I am proud and excited to source materials from companies that are dedicated to an ethical supply chain where the sheep are museling free. They also employ and support a safe work environment for women in South America.
Eco-Minded Packaging
Every item is shipped in packaging made from 100% recycled materials. I strongly believe that doing our part, no matter how small, to protect the environment is important. Choosing eco-friendly and minimal packaging is one small choice I can make to do so. Please reuse or recycle when done!

YouTube: Smeeny in the Wild
Come along on the journey of running Smeeny Made Wild. I share the ups and downs of my business and how I balance the self-employed life with my outdoor adventures. Check out my YouTube channel: Smeeny in the Wild where I share (almost) weekly vlog style videos of the day-to-day life behind the biz.
When you choose to buy handmade, you are supporting a dream!
Thank you for being a part of mine.
I'm Chereen, the owner/maker/designer and chief-everything-officer of Smeeny Made Wild and live in a small mountain town in Colorado with my husband, Rob, and our dog, Arya. I'm a winter-loving Sagittarius with a multi-passionate soul who loves pho, traveling, rugby, and a good historical drama (ahem, the Last Kingdom!).
I LOVE spending time outside in my small Colorado mountain town and am passionate about inspiring others to protect our planet so that we can continue experiencing the joys of the outdoors. When I'm not creating, I'm skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking, camping, foraging, on the river, traveling and overall just rewilding my life and finding more connection with nature.
