Thin turn-up alpaca and mohair beanie – understated warmth for in-between seasons

The MARGARET style is a handmade fitted beanie with a turn-up brim, knitted from two strands: a main yarn of 100% alpaca and an additional yarn of 75% mohair and 25% silk. The double-layer ribbed brim and natural fibres provide noticeable but not excessive warmth, making it a good women’s beanie for chilly autumn mornings, windy days in the city and early spring.

• thin, lightweight knit – easy to tuck into a handbag or backpack and comfortable to wear for longer without feeling heavy
• double ribbing and turn-up brim – a closer fit around the head and extra warmth around the ears without a squeezed feeling
• alpaca with a mohair-silk strand – pleasant, enveloping warmth; a good option if you are looking for an elegant women’s beanie for the transitional season
• visible soft halo on the surface – a subtly fluffy finish that adds lightness
• high resistance to pilling – helps the beanie keep a neat appearance with regular wear
• hand-knitted – each handmade beanie is knitted individually, which helps refine the shape and the elasticity of the ribbing
• light sandy beige – a neutral colour that pairs easily with a coat, quilted jacket or puffer in different shades
• Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certified yarn – the yarn has been tested for harmful substances
• next to the skin – alpaca and mohair fibres may feel slightly itchy on very sensitive skin; if you need a completely smooth feel, gentler beanies made from other fibres may be a better choice
• hand wash only – wash wool by hand in lukewarm water, without fabric softener; detailed guidance can be found here: wool care
• matching accessories – you can pair the beanie with a scarf, snood, shawl or mittens in natural fibres to create a coordinated set: matching wool accessories; if you like, you can also add a matching pom-pom in your chosen colour using the shop option
• removable eco-leather label – makes washing easier and lets you wear the beanie without decorative extras if you prefer
