Best Answer

The Mad Hatter is depicted wearing spools of thread on his hat in the novel "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" as a nod to the hat-making industry. Back in the 19th century, Mercury was used in the process of making felt hats, which led to mercury poisoning causing neurological damage. This association with madness is reflected in the character of the Mad Hatter.
