| 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. |
HELLI is a handmade merino wool beanie in a medium-weight knit, designed for autumn and winter, with a smooth surface and a slightly extended back. Availability depends on the selected option — click your size to check whether it is ready to ship or made to order.
For colder days and for those who do not like scratchy knits
This style works well as an everyday beanie for the transitional season and winter, when you want something warm but not visually heavy. The heather shade combines pink and purple tones, so it works equally well with quieter outfits and more expressive combinations. It is a good choice if you care about soft contact against the skin and a simple, classic look without a turned-up brim. If you are looking for a beanie with an extra layer across the forehead, this non-cuffed style may not give the same effect as folded-brim designs.
Yarn and how it feels to wear
I used 100% Baby Merino because for beanies worn close to the face and ears, it is not only warmth that matters, but also how the knit behaves on the skin. This yarn is suitable for sensitive skin, and its safety is confirmed by the Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certificate.
As with any wool, preserving its shape and properties requires gentle hand washing and proper wool care.
A shape that sits naturally without stiffness
This is a beanie style with a slightly extended back, so it does not finish flat at the top and has a more relaxed line. Thanks to its flexible construction, it adapts well to the shape of the head without looking heavy. The lack of a folded brim keeps the whole look visually simple and more streamlined. If you prefer a more covered, thicker edge around the ears, it is worth keeping this difference in mind before choosing.
What this style offers in everyday wear
- 100% Baby Merino – gives softer contact with the skin and reduces the risk of the typical wool discomfort when worn close to the forehead and ears.
- Medium-weight knit – makes the beanie suitable for autumn and winter without the look of a very chunky knit.
- Double ribbing – improves elasticity, so the beanie adjusts better when putting it on and wearing it.
- Smooth surface without halo – gives a cleaner visual effect and does not create a fluffy outline around the face.
- Non-cuffed beanie shape – gives a simpler, lighter look than styles with a folded brim.
- Extended back – allows for a more relaxed fit with a little extra room at the back.
- Hand-knitted – gives it the character of a piece made one by one rather than industrially shaped knitwear.
Extras and details worth noting
If you would like to complete this style, you can choose a beanie with pom-pom in the same yarn colour. You can also pair it with matching shawls, wraps and snoods if you would like a coordinated set for the colder season.
