| I do my best to show the colours as accurately as possible in the photos, but sometimes my phone has its own ideas ;) Please remember that shades may also look slightly different depending on your screen settings. If I have added several photos, it is worth looking at all of them together for the best colour reference. |

When the CHMURKA Moss Green beanie is a good choice
This style works well if you are looking for a warm winter beanie or an autumn hat that keeps your head warm without feeling very thick or heavy. The turned-up beanie shape is practical for everyday wear: with a coat, puffer jacket or parka. Moss Green is a good option if you like calm shades of green and want an accessory that pairs easily with neutral colours. If your scalp is very sensitive and you do not tolerate contact with wool, this style may feel too itchy.
Alpaca-blend yarn and how it may feel on the skin
The beanie is made from a yarn with a high content of alpaca wool (65% Alpaca, 28% Polyamide, 7% Wool), with a soft surface and a light natural halo. In practice, this gives a cosy feel and good thermal insulation while keeping the knit at a moderate thickness. The polyamide helps the beanie hold its shape and improves resistance to pilling, which matters with frequent wear. For people with very sensitive skin or wool intolerance, contact with the fibre may feel slightly itchy – in that case, it may be better to choose a beanie with a different composition or wear this one with a thin headband underneath.
Shape, turn-up and fit
The CHMURKA style is a turned-up beanie with a light oversized effect, hand-knitted with a single rib stitch. This stitch allows the beanie to stretch well around the head for a flexible fit, while helping it keep its spring after being taken off. The turn-up creates a double layer over the ears, which improves warmth on windy days. Thanks to the stretch of the rib knit, the beanie should not feel tight as long as you choose the size in line with the hats you usually wear.
CHMURKA in everyday wear – what is worth knowing
- Medium-weight alpaca-blend knit – gives noticeable warmth through autumn and winter without the feel of a heavy, bulky beanie.
- Turned-up edge – creates a double layer over the ears, which improves protection from cooler wind during everyday wear.
- Rib stitch – provides a flexible fit to the shape of the head and helps keep the beanie in place while wearing it.
- Surface with a light halo – gives a visually soft, slightly cloud-like effect that works well with calm autumn and winter outfits.
- Composition with a high share of natural fibres and good resistance to pilling – helps the beanie keep a neat appearance with frequent use.
- Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification for the yarn – means the yarn used has been tested for harmful substances within the limits of this standard.
- Hand-knitted finish – each handmade beanie may vary slightly in the way the stitches sit, which is a natural feature of handmade work, not a flaw.
Finishing details and matching accessories
The beanie is finished with a NitkoweLove eco-leather label, which can be easily unclipped before washing, making care easier. To help preserve the properties and shape of the alpaca knit, hand washing in lukewarm water is recommended – you can find detailed guidance in the wool care guide.
