A thin, lightweight alpaca beanie for autumn and spring, handmade with knitting needles, works well when you want light coverage without the weight of a winter hat. Both ready-to-ship and made-to-order pieces are available – click your chosen size to check the current making time.

A lightweight handmade beanie in vivid pink

The CHMURKA 2.0 style has a simple beanie shape without a turn-up, with a longer back, and is made in double rib, which affects both its stretch and the way it sits on the head. The magenta pink shade and the delicate halo of the knit give it a soft yet distinctive look, so it is a good option if you are looking for an alpaca beanie for everyday wear during the in-between seasons.

• 65% alpaca, 28% polyamide, 7% wool – the alpaca-rich blend gives it a lightweight, gently enveloping feel for cooler autumn and spring days.
• Thin, lightweight knit – this beanie does not have the heavy volume of a winter hat, so it is easy to wear day to day.
• Double rib – improves the fit and helps the beanie adapt more easily when putting it on.
• No turn-up and a longer back – the shape sits more loosely than classic, shorter wool beanies.
• Delicate halo on the surface – the alpaca knit has a soft, lightly fluffy look.
• Against the skin: it may feel slightly itchy on very sensitive skin – important to keep in mind if you do not tolerate even gently fuzzy yarns well.
• Pilling resistance: medium – with normal wear, typical surface wear of the knit should be expected.
• Handmade with knitting needles – each handmade beanie is made in a calm, consistent process, without mass production.
