Classic alpaca beanie in a cool mist shade

The LAURIN style has a simple, everyday shape and a calm tone between grey and muted blue, so it pairs easily with a winter wardrobe. This alpaca wool beanie has a defined ribbed texture, without extra bulk at the forehead. Aga knitted this style in a double rib, which gives the fabric good flexibility and helps the vertical lines keep their shape in wear.

• No turn-up brim means less bulk at the forehead, so the beanie sits more easily under a hood.
• The double rib gives the knit good stretch, so the beanie adapts better to the head and does not look flat.
• The medium weight works from chilly autumn into winter, so it can be worn day to day without a heavy, bulky feel.
• The extended back creates a looser fit at the back of the head, which gives this style a more relaxed rather than close-fitting character.
• The surface has a soft halo, giving it a gentler, fluffier look, but on very sensitive skin it may feel slightly itchy.
• Good resistance to pilling helps it keep a neat appearance for longer, so it handles regular wear well.

Accessories and care

For this style, you can also choose a beanie with pom-pom made from the same yarn in the same colour. If you would like to put together a matching alpaca beanie and scarf set, take a look at our shawls, snoods and scarves as well. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances. Hand wash only and dry flat to help the alpaca beanie keep its shape and the spring of the knit; we have collected a short care guide here: how to care for wool.
