KIARA Women's Alpaca Beanie 100% Alpaca 9025 Nut Brown

This is a handmade beanie with an elongated back, made from 100% alpaca, in a medium weight for autumn and winter. The lack of a turn-up reduces bulk at the forehead, while the rib stitch helps the beanie sit well on the head. We offer both ready-to-ship and made-to-order pieces — click your chosen size to check the current availability or estimated making time.

An alpaca beanie without a turn-up for everyday wear

The KIARA style has a simple, classic shape and a warm walnut brown shade that works well with an everyday wardrobe. This alpaca wool beanie is for those looking for light volume without a heavy, thick feel at the forehead. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances.

• The medium weight provides warmth suited to autumn and winter, so the beanie works well for daily wear without feeling overly bulky.
• The lack of a turn-up reduces layering at the forehead, which makes it easier to wear under a hood.
• The single rib stitch creates an elastic, defined texture, so the beanie fits the head better and keeps its shape in wear.
• The elongated back creates a looser fit at the back of the head, so the shape does not end abruptly at the nape.
• The surface has a delicate halo that gives the knit a softer, less raw look, but it may feel slightly itchy on very sensitive skin.
• High resistance to pilling helps it keep a neat appearance for longer, so the beanie stands up better to regular wear.

Extras and care

If you like, we can add a matching pom-pom to this women’s alpaca beanie, in the same colour and made from the same yarn. You can also choose a snood, scarf or shawl from our handmade collection to complete the set: see matching wool accessories. Aga made this style in single rib, which helps the knit keep its clear, springy structure. The beanie requires hand washing; it is best washed infrequently, dried flat, and cared for using the short care guide here: how to care for wool.
