Navy CHMURKA beanie – light yet warm

The CHMURKA style is a classic handmade alpaca beanie with an extended back and no turn-up cuff. The softly fluffy yarn (65% alpaca, 28% polyamide, 7% wool) and smooth stitch create a soft, “cloud-like” texture that works well with everyday outfits. The navy shade is understated and easy to pair with most jackets and coats, so the beanie suits both casual and more polished looks.

• Alpaca-rich composition – a good option if you are looking for an alpaca wool beanie for cooler days in the city; the thin knit provides warmth without feeling heavy.
• Thin, lightweight construction – the beanie feels barely noticeable on the head and is easy to tuck into a pocket or bag when the weather gets warmer.
• No turn-up cuff, with an extended back – the beanie falls softly at the back of the head without adding volume around the face.
• Surface with a delicate halo – typical of wool beanies with alpaca; visually somewhat similar to a mohair-look beanie, but with a different fibre composition.
• Against the skin – if your skin is very sensitive, the beanie may feel slightly itchy; in that case, it may work better worn over loose hair or with a headband underneath.
• Pilling resistance: medium – a light fuzz may naturally appear in areas of friction, which does not affect the functionality of the beanie when cared for properly.
• Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certified – the yarn meets safety standards for skin contact, which matters if you often wear a beanie directly on your head.
• Handmade with knitting needles – each piece is knitted individually, allowing for careful finishing and making it a good choice if you are looking for a handmade, one-of-a-kind beanie.

How to wear it, what to pair it with, and what to keep in mind

This navy alpaca beanie works best as an everyday, more elegant women’s winter hat for transitional weather: cool autumn days, early spring, and windy weather without severe frost. Thanks to the simple beanie shape, it is easy to pair with a coat, puffer jacket or parka. If you would like to create a matching handmade set (for example an alpaca scarf, snood, shawl or mittens) in a similar style, you can choose accessories available here: matching handmade accessories. Wash the beanie by hand only, in lukewarm water, without fabric softeners – you can find detailed care instructions for wool accessories here. This will help your alpaca beanie keep its shape, resilience and fluffy texture for longer.
