Alpaca beanie in a warm camel shade

This alpaca beanie comes in a camel-toned beige, with a clearly defined vertical double-rib texture and no turn-up cuff, so it sits lightly and does not add extra volume at the forehead. Aga knits this model by hand on needles in a stitch that gives it a flexible fit and its distinctive elongated back.

• 100% alpaca in a medium weight works well for autumn and winter, so the beanie provides warmth without feeling heavy or bulky.
• The lack of a turn-up cuff reduces bulk around the forehead, so the beanie sits more easily under a hood.
• The double rib gives the knit elasticity, helping the beanie fit the head better and keep its shape in wear.
• The elongated back creates a looser beanie shape, so the hat does not end right at the top of the head.
• The surface has a light halo, which gives the knit a softer, less dry look, but very sensitive skin may still notice slight itchiness.
• Its high resistance to pilling helps the beanie keep an even look with regular wear over the coming seasons.

Extras and care

For this model, we can add a matching pom-pom made from the same yarn if you would like a women’s beanie with a pom-pom in the same camel shade. If a set feels more practical for you than an alpaca beanie on its own, you can also choose a matching scarf, snood or shawl. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances. This alpaca wool beanie should be hand washed; we have gathered the guidance here: how to care for wool accessories.
