Black alpaca beanie MARGARET – lightweight, yet noticeably warm
The MARGARET style from the classic collection is a smooth black women’s alpaca beanie in a relaxed oversized shape. Its two-yarn construction (the main alpaca yarn plus a mohair-and-silk yarn) makes the knit thin but still gives the noticeable warmth typical of wool beanies, working well for autumn and spring temperatures as well as a milder winter.
- Composition: 100% alpaca + 75% mohair, 25% silk – natural fibres with good thermal insulation despite the light knit.
- Double rib stitch – the beanie stays in place well while keeping its softness and relaxed beanie shape.
- Thin, lightweight knit – practical for everyday wear: in town, in the car, in shops or on public transport, without overheating.
- A softly fuzzy surface – visually close to mohair-style beanies, giving it a softer look and a more elegant character.
- Against the skin – if your skin is very sensitive, you may notice a slight itch; in that case, styles made from a gentler yarn may suit you better.
- Highly resistant to pilling – with proper care, the beanie keeps its neat appearance for many seasons.
- Simple black colour – easy to pair with a coat, puffer jacket or leather jacket; it also works well as a classic, safe gift.
- Hand-knitted – each handmade beanie is individually finished with attention to yarn tension and the elasticity of the ribbing.
- Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certified yarn – confirms that the yarn has been independently tested for harmful substances.
How to wear and care for the MARGARET alpaca beanie
This black alpaca wool beanie in an oversized shape sits nicely slightly towards the back of the head, creating an easy, modern silhouette. It is an elegant women’s winter beanie in a lighter version – suitable for everyday wear to work, for a walk or a trip into town, when you need warmth suited to moderate conditions rather than very thick, ski-style insulation. If you like matching accessories, you can pair it with a coordinating alpaca scarf or snood from the handmade wool section: matching scarves and snoods.
Wash the beanie by hand in lukewarm water, using a gentle detergent made for wool and without fabric softeners, then dry it flat and reshape it as it dries – this is important for preserving the elasticity and texture of the knit. You can find detailed guidance here: step-by-step wool care. The eco-leather label can be easily unclipped for washing, which helps prevent it from warping or becoming stiff.
