A classic alpaca beanie in a calm dark blush shade

This is a model from the KIARA line, with a simple, everyday feel. The dark blush shade blends pink and slightly brown tones, so it works easily with muted winter outfits. Aga chose a single rib and a non-folded shape here, which helps the beanie stay flexible and fall softly at the back.

• The lack of a turn-up reduces bulk at the forehead, so the beanie fits more easily under a hood.
• The extended back gives it a looser beanie shape, so it does not look stiff on the head.
• The medium weight works well from chilly autumn into winter, so it can be worn across a wider part of the season than very thick styles.
• The single rib stitch gives a flexible fit, so the knit moves naturally without feeling heavy.
• 100% alpaca provides warmth in a relatively lightweight knit, so the beanie keeps you warm without a bulky effect.
• The surface has a soft natural halo, which gives it a more natural, softer look, but very sensitive skin may notice a slight itch.
• Good resistance to pilling helps it keep a neat appearance for longer, so it handles regular wear better.

Extras and care

If you like, you can choose a beanie with pom-pom in the same colour — we make the pom-pom from the same yarn as the beanie. You can also order a scarf, snood or shawl to match if you are looking for a coordinated alpaca beanie and scarf set. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances. This alpaca wool beanie should be washed by hand; we have gathered the guidance in a short guide here: how to care for wool.
