What this beanie is designed for

This style is a good choice if you are looking for a wool beanie for the colder season that covers the ears without feeling overly bulky. It works well for everyday wear: to work, around town, on walks - anywhere you want a balance of warmth and comfort. The muted green shade pairs easily with many jackets and coats without looking over-styled. If you have a very sensitive scalp and do not tolerate any itchiness at all, this style may feel too demanding in direct contact.

How the material feels on the skin

The beanie is made from 100% alpaca yarn certified to Oeko-Tex Standard 100, with a noticeable but delicate halo on the surface of the knit. The material feels soft and springy to the touch, gives a cosy feel and helps maintain steady warmth on colder days. On a very sensitive scalp, the fine fibres may be noticeable as slight itchiness - in that case, it may help to wear the beanie over a lightly falling fringe or with a thin headband underneath.

Fit and shape

This is a classic turn-up beanie, hand-knitted in a full-length double rib. The folded brim creates an extra layer over the ears, which improves warmth and helps keep the beanie in place without too much pressure. The rib has natural stretch, adapting to the shape of the head, while the overall form is close-fitting with a slight softness at the top, especially when worn lower on the forehead. This shape is easy to style either more smoothly or with a little ease at the back, depending on how deeply you pull it on.

What this means in everyday wear

• Medium-weight knit - suitable through autumn and winter, without the feeling of a heavy, overheating layer on the head.
• Full-length double rib - adds elasticity and helps the beanie return to shape after wearing, which reduces the risk of quick stretching.
• Folded brim - creates extra coverage for the ears and forehead, especially noticeable in wind and lower temperatures.
• Surface with a delicate halo - adds to the soft, cosy feel, but may be slightly noticeable for those who are particularly sensitive to fibre texture.
• High resistance to pilling - with proper care, helps the beanie keep its neat appearance through many seasons of frequent wear.
• Hand-knitted craftsmanship - means carefully made, dense stitches and the possibility of slight differences between pieces, typical of handmade beanies.
• Green Grass shade - works well with neutral outerwear colours such as black, grey and beige, giving them a more natural, everyday look.

Extras, pom-pom and care

You can add a matching pom-pom in the same yarn to this beanie. It will be sewn on before shipping, creating a coordinated, ready-to-wear piece. If you are putting together a set for the colder season, take a look at the shawls, scarves and snoods, where you will find accessories you can match to this style by colour and weight.
