Where this beanie works best

This style is a good choice if you are looking for a turn-up beanie that works well across changing temperatures, from chilly autumn days to a typical city winter. It suits everyday wear: walks, commuting, weekend trips, when you want one reliable hat you can reach for regularly. The burgundy-purple tone works well with understated coats and jackets without feeling too bold. If your scalp is especially sensitive to natural fibres, this beanie may feel slightly itchy.

In contact with natural yarn

This beanie is made from 100% alpaca wool certified to Oeko-Tex Standard 100, with a surface and soft halo typical of alpaca beanies. Against the skin it feels soft and cosy, but if your scalp is very sensitive, you may notice slight itchiness. In that case, it may be worth wearing a thin headband underneath or choosing a different type of yarn.

When buying wool beanies, it is worth reading this short guide to wool care to help the knit keep its shape and properties for longer.

Shape and fit

LAURIN is a turn-up beanie, handmade on knitting needles in a double rib stitch. This stitch gives it stretch and a natural fit to the shape of the head, without strong pressure. The folded brim adds extra coverage over the ears, which improves warmth and helps the beanie stay in place while worn. It is a fitted style – not extremely tight, but not slouchy or oversized at the top either.

How this beanie feels in everyday wear

• Medium-weight alpaca knit – gives noticeable warmth in autumn and winter conditions, without the feel of a heavy, overheating hat.
• Double rib stitch – helps the beanie adapt to the head circumference and stay securely in place while moving.
• Turn-up edge – creates an extra layer over the ears, improving warmth and wind protection.
• Surface with a soft halo – gives the knit visual softness and the character typical of alpaca, but may be noticeable on very sensitive skin.
• High resistance to pilling – helps reduce the risk of the surface wearing out quickly with frequent use and wear under a hood.
• Handmade on knitting needles – each piece may vary slightly in detail, which is a natural result of handmade work rather than a product flaw.
• Autumn/winter season – this beanie works best on colder days; in severe frost, you may want extra protection if you feel the cold easily.

Finishing details and optional extras

The beanie is finished with a NitkoweLove leather label, which can be easily unclipped before washing to make caring for the knit easier. If you prefer a beanie with pom-pom, you can choose a separate pom-pom in a colour and attachment style that suits you. To create a coordinated set for colder days, you may also want to add a shawl, scarf or snood in a similar tone or in another yarn that you wear comfortably.
