A white alpaca beanie for everyday wear

This style has a fitted beanie shape, a single rib stitch and a folded brim, so it stays in place well and keeps a simple, clean line. The white shade softened with ecru looks gentle, and the light halo on the surface gives the knit a more natural character rather than a smooth finish. Aga chose a medium-weight knit here, so the beanie does not feel too heavy around the forehead.

• 100% alpaca creates a light, cosy layer for colder days, so this beanie works well from autumn into winter.
• The folded brim adds an extra layer around the forehead and ears, so this area is better protected from the cold.
• The single rib stitch helps the beanie adapt to the shape of the head, so it sits close without too much volume.
• The medium weight makes it easy to wear every day, because it fits under a hood more easily than very thick wool beanies.
• The lightly fuzzy surface gives it a softer, fibre-rich look, but very sensitive skin may notice a slight itch.
• Its high resistance to pilling helps the alpaca wool beanie keep a neat appearance for longer with regular wear.
• Hand-knitted construction gives it a springy, defined texture, so this handmade beanie does not look flat when worn.

Extras and care

If you like, we can also make this style as a white beanie with pom-pom in the same yarn. You can also add a scarf, snood or shawl if you want a coordinated set. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances in accordance with Oeko-Tex® Standard 100. This women's alpaca beanie should be hand washed; we have gathered the full guidance here: how to care for wool accessories. If you order a ready-to-ship piece, Marta packs it so the knitwear arrives without creasing.
