For Hand Finishing Limited Collection Product
| 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. |

Best suited to
This wool beanie works well for everyday wear from chilly autumn through winter, especially if you want clear coverage around the ears without a very heavy, bulky feel. Thanks to its simple beanie shape, it pairs well with both city jackets and more outdoor-oriented outfits. What stands out most in this version is the colour layout — each piece will look slightly different, because the colour transitions come from the yarn itself. If you are looking for a beanie for very sensitive skin or in a completely smooth, solid colour, this may not be the best choice.
Yarn and feel when worn
I used a yarn made of 75% wool and 25% polyamide, because this blend keeps the natural character of wool while handling regular wear better. The knit surface is smooth, without a fuzzy finish, so it does not have the fluffy look known from some softer blends.
On very sensitive skin, wool may feel slightly itchy. For care, follow the usual rules for wool — this short wool care guide may help.
Shape and fit
This model has a fitted beanie shape with a turn-up brim that defines the line across the forehead and helps the beanie stay in place. The single rib works with the movement of the head, so the shape is not stiff and settles well once on. It is a good option for those who prefer a beanie that sits closer to the head rather than a loose, roomy fit. The folded brim also gives a more covered lower edge, so it works especially well when practical wear in colder weather matters most.
What this means in daily wear
- Medium-weight knit – gives warmth suitable for autumn and winter without the feel of a thick, heavy beanie.
- Turn-up brim – adds coverage around the forehead and ears, which is especially noticeable in windy weather.
- Single rib – improves flexibility, so the beanie adapts better when putting it on and wearing it.
- Smooth surface without fuzz – makes everyday wear easier for those who do not like a fluffy finish near the face.
- Wool-rich composition – helps maintain the kind of warmth expected from a wool beanie in the colder season.
- Added polyamide – supports durability in regular wear, although resistance to pilling remains moderate.
- Melange, non-uniform colour layout – means each beanie from this batch has its own pattern of colour transitions, so no two pieces look exactly the same.
