| 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. |
VARELLA is a folded 100% Baby Merino beanie in a medium weight, designed for autumn and winter, with a smooth surface and a calm light beige shade. You can check availability by clicking on the size – that’s where you’ll see whether the beanie is ready to ship or made to order.
Weather and styling
This style is for those looking for a merino wool beanie for regular wear through the colder part of the year, without unnecessary details and in an easy-to-match colour. The light beige gives a neutral look and works well with many coats and jackets, so it suits both everyday wear and a quieter accent in winter outfits. Because of its medium weight, it works well for a typical autumn and winter. If you need a beanie for severe frost or very windy conditions, it’s worth keeping in mind that this is not a chunky, very thick style.
Yarn and feel against the skin
I chose 100% Baby Merino because, in a well-made knit, it gives a soft feel against the skin and a smooth surface without a fuzzy halo. This model is marked as suitable for sensitive skin, and the yarn used is certified to Oeko-Tex® Standard 100.
Like any wool that needs gentle handling, it requires proper wool care and hand washing.
How it fits
This is a close-fitting beanie with a folded brim, so it holds its shape well and does not create a loose, slouchy effect. The ribbed knit helps it adapt naturally to the head, while the folded edge keeps a neat line around the forehead and ears. This shape is a good choice if you want a beanie that sits close to the head. If you prefer a clearly oversized shape, a different cut will be a better option.
What it offers in everyday wear
- 100% Baby Merino – gives a natural, soft feel in wear without added fibres.
- Medium weight – works well through the autumn and winter season without the feel of a heavy, bulky beanie.
- Smooth knit without a fuzzy halo – gives a cleaner, more refined look and less random fluffing on the surface.
- Single rib knit – supports elasticity, so the beanie adapts better when putting it on and wearing it.
- Folded brim – adds extra coverage around the lower edge and helps stabilise the way it sits.
- Handmade on a knitting machine – allows me to keep the shape consistent while preserving the character of handmade work.
- Pilling resistance: medium – with regular wear, signs of natural use may appear over time, as is typical for delicate wool.
Matching accessories
If you’d like to change the character of the style, you can choose a beanie with pom-pom in the same colour and made from the same yarn. shawls, scarves and snoods also pair well with it if you want a coordinated set in natural yarn.
