A grey alpaca beanie for everyday wear

The KIARA style has a calm mid-grey tone and a simple shape that fits easily into everyday outfits. The no-turn-up edge reduces bulk at the forehead, while the extended back creates a looser fit at the back of the head. Aga chose a single rib stitch here, so the beanie keeps its elasticity and clear vertical texture.

• 100% alpaca gives light, natural protection on colder days, so this beanie works well in autumn and winter without feeling heavy.
• The no-turn-up edge reduces thickness at the forehead, so the beanie fits more easily under a hood.
• The extended back creates a more relaxed beanie shape, so it does not sit stiffly against the head.
• The single rib stitch supports the fit, helping the knit move better when putting it on and wearing it.
• The surface has a delicate halo that gives it a soft, lightly fluffy look, but on very sensitive skin it may feel slightly itchy.
• Good resistance to pilling helps it keep a neat appearance for longer, so it handles regular wear better.

Extras and care

If you like, we can make this women’s alpaca beanie with a matching pom-pom in the same colour and from the same yarn. You can also choose a scarf, snood or shawl to go with it — a good option if you are looking for a matching alpaca beanie and scarf set. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances. This alpaca wool beanie should be hand washed; you can find a short guide here: how to care for wool. Marta packs each parcel so the knit arrives without storage creases.
