When this beanie is a good choice

This is a good option if you are looking for a hat for cool autumn days and winter, with a turn-up brim that adds an extra layer over the ears. It works well for everyday wear in the city, with a jacket or coat, when you want natural wool with a subtle colour accent. The multicoloured pattern also helps hide small signs of wear better than a solid colour, which can matter with frequent use. It may not be suitable, however, for people with a very sensitive scalp who react even to the mild itchiness of wool.

Material and feel against the skin

The beanie is made from yarn with a composition of 75% merino, 25% polyamide, with a smooth knit surface and no halo. Merino wool provides thermal insulation and natural temperature regulation, while the polyamide adds resistance to stretching and everyday wear. In contact with the skin, a slight roughness may be noticeable, especially for people who are highly sensitive to wool, so if you are prone to irritation it may be worth wearing it over a thin headband or on skin already used to wool.

Shape and fit of the NELLI turn-up beanie

This is a turn-up beanie, handmade with a double rib knit that stretches naturally and adapts to the shape of the head. The folded brim creates an extra double layer over the ears and across the forehead, which improves warmth without adding too much bulk at the crown. The medium-weight knit makes it easier to wear under a hood, including a less roomy coat hood – the beanie is not stiff, but gently springy around the head. In the right size, it stays in place well, without tending to slip down over the eyes when you move.

NELLI for everyday wear – practical details

• Medium-weight merino knit – gives warmth suitable for autumn and a typical city winter, without excessive overheating when stepping indoors.
• Double rib knit throughout the full height of the beanie – provides flexible fit and helps the shape hold up after repeated wear.
• Turn-up brim – creates an extra layer over the ears, which improves comfort in wind and lower temperatures.
• Polyamide added to the yarn – increases resistance to everyday stretching and helps the beanie keep its shape, although with heavy use moderate pilling may appear over time.
• Smooth multicoloured knit in white/ecru tones with yellow and orange accents – easy to pair with different outerwear and partly disguises minor signs of use.
• Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 Class I certification – means the yarn used has been tested for harmful substances, which may matter if you pay close attention to textile composition and safety.
• Handmade on needles – each beanie is an individual piece, with natural variations resulting from handcraft work, which is worth keeping in mind when comparing one piece to another.

Extras and care

You can choose a matching pom-pom for your beanie in the same yarn colour – the pom-pom is made from the same yarn as the knit, so the whole piece looks cohesive and balanced.

If you would like a set, take a look at the matching shawls, wraps and snoods, where you can find accessories to match by colour or choose by contrast. Gentle hand washing in lukewarm water and drying flat will help extend the life of the beanie – you can find detailed guidance in the wool care guide, which covers practical care for merino wool at home.
