Where this beanie works best

The LAURIN style in 3720 Medium Pink is a good choice if you are looking for an alpaca beanie for the colder months that wraps the head comfortably without excessive overheating. The medium-weight knit and turn-up cuff work well for everyday wear, from autumn walks to winter trips into town. Thanks to its close fit and springy rib, it suits those who prefer a beanie that stays securely in place on the head. It may not be the best choice if you have very sensitive skin and do not tolerate natural fibres with a noticeable halo well.

Natural alpaca and how it feels on the skin

This beanie is made from 100% Alpaca yarn with the Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certificate, with a clearly noticeable softness and a slight cool touch before wearing. When worn, the natural alpaca fibres create a comfortable insulating layer around the head, without the close, “stuffy” feel typical of some synthetic materials. The surface of the knit has a soft halo that is usually comfortable, but on very sensitive skin it may feel slightly itchy, especially around the forehead and ears. In that case, a smoother yarn may be a better choice.

Shape, turn-up cuff and fit

LAURIN is a turn-up beanie, handmade with a double rib stitch. This stitch gives it a springy, flexible fit that sits well on the head and helps it stay securely positioned above the brow line and over the ears. The turn-up cuff adds an extra layer of knit around the forehead and ears, which increases the feeling of warmth on colder days. The beanie sits close to the head, without a strongly slouchy back, which makes it easier to wear under a hood or coat hood.

What this beanie offers in everyday wear

• Medium-weight knit – provides warmth suitable for autumn and winter in the city, without a heavy, bulky feel on the head.
• Double rib and turn-up cuff – increase thermal insulation around the forehead and ears, which is noticeable in wind and lower temperatures.
• High resistance to pilling – helps limit the formation of pills during regular wear, so the beanie keeps a neat appearance for longer.
• Springy, close-fitting shape – stays securely on the head, which can be helpful during more active use such as brisk walks, commuting or everyday outings.
• Soft halo on the surface – gives the knit a softer visual look and the characteristic appearance typical of alpaca beanies, with less smoothness to the touch.
• Handmade on knitting needles – allows for even stitch tension and careful shaping, which affects how the beanie sits on the head.
• Medium Pink colour – sits within a calm pink tone that is easy to pair with neutral jackets and coats.

Finishing details and extras

The beanie is finished with a simple, even rib edge, so the turn-up cuff sits neatly without extra bulk in one area. There is a small eco-leather tag on the edge, which can be removed before washing if you prefer not to soak leather elements. If you prefer a beanie with pom-pom, you can choose a pom-pom made from the same yarn and in the same colour, and it will be sewn on before dispatch.

To create a coordinated set for colder days, you can choose matching shawls, wraps or snoods from the shop, matching the texture and proportions to this beanie. To help maintain the knit and colour, hand washing in lukewarm water is recommended. You can find more guidance in the wool care guide.
