| 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 handmade merino wool beanie in a medium weight, with a turn-up brim and a smooth knit surface, designed for autumn and winter. Availability depends on the size you choose — click your selected variant to see whether it is ready to ship or made to order.
Where it works best
This style suits those looking for a close-fitting beanie for the colder months, but without a heavy, very chunky knit. It works well for everyday wear in autumn and winter, especially when you want a calm, smooth look. The Heather colour combines violet, pink and slightly burgundy tones, so it adds a clear accent without looking too bold. If you need a very lightweight mid-season beanie or a style with a loose, clearly oversized shape, this version may not give that effect.
Yarn and feel against the skin
This style is made from 100% Baby Merino. I also choose this yarn with skin contact in mind — here the knit is smooth, without a halo, and according to its parameters it is suitable for sensitive skin. The yarn is certified to Oeko-Tex® Standard 100, which confirms it has been tested for harmful substances.
Like any wool, it needs careful care; you can find a short guide here: wool care.
How it sits on the head
This is a beanie with a more structured shape rather than a slouchy one, with a turn-up brim that gives a neater line across the forehead and ears. The ribbing works together with the movement of the knit, so the beanie holds its shape better during wear. Handmade on a knitting machine, it has an even, clean structure. If you are looking for a strongly slouching back, it is worth keeping in mind that this style remains rather fitted.
What follows from its construction
- 100% Baby Merino – a wool beanie for the colder season, without synthetic blends.
- Medium weight – gives coverage for autumn and winter, but without the effect of a very heavy, fluffy hat.
- Smooth knit surface without a halo – helps reduce irritating contact on the forehead and around the ears.
- Single rib – adds elasticity, so the beanie adapts better when putting it on and wearing it.
- Turn-up brim – adds an extra layer around the lower part, increasing coverage where the cold is usually felt most.
- Pilling resistance: medium – with regular use, typical signs of wool wear may appear over time.
- Hand wash – requires gentle care, but helps the knit keep its shape and properties for longer.
Matching accessories
If you would like to add a matching pom-pom, you can choose one made from the same yarn as the beanie in a coordinated colour. Matching shawls, wraps and snoods also work well with it if you want a set in a similar style. The beanie is finished with an eco-leather label, which can be unclipped before washing.
