Light grey alpaca beanie for the colder season

This is a simple beanie style with a turn-up, so it works well for everyday wear and does not need arranging before you head out. The light grey colour and the soft halo on the surface give this alpaca beanie a calm, gentle look. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances.

• 100% alpaca in a medium weight gives warmth suited to autumn and winter, so the beanie works well for daily wear without feeling overly heavy.
• The turn-up at the forehead adds a second layer in this area, so the beanie covers the ears better and stays more securely on the head.
• The single rib allows the beanie to fit without stiffness, so it sits close to the head and keeps its beanie shape.
• The softly brushed surface gives it a gentler, more wrapped-in look, but on very sensitive skin it may feel slightly itchy.
• Its high resistance to pilling makes everyday wear easier, as the beanie keeps a neat appearance for longer.
• Made by hand on a knitting machine, it has an even, clearly defined stitch, so it also looks neat when turned up.

Extras and care

For this style, we can add a matching pom-pom made from the same yarn if you would like the beanie finished with a pom-pom in the same shade. If you would like a set, we can also match this alpaca beanie with a scarf, snood or shawl. Aga chose a single rib here, which keeps the turn-up shape flexible and easy to wear. The beanie requires hand washing; wash it rarely in lukewarm water, dry flat, and see our short care instructions for wool accessories.
