NELLI – a merino beanie in a purple rain shade

This merino wool beanie is handmade on knitting needles in a double rib stitch, which helps it sit well on the head and hold its shape. The “purple rain” colour creates softly blending, multi-tonal shades of purple with touches of pink and calm, light tones – a good option if you want something more distinctive than a plain solid-colour beanie, while still easy to pair with a jacket or coat.

• Composition: 75% merino, 25% polyamide – merino wool provides warmth and comfort on colder days, while the added synthetic fibre helps the beanie keep its shape and may improve resistance to everyday wear.
• Medium-weight knit – a winter merino beanie suitable from cool autumn days to a typical city winter; a good everyday option when you want warmth without the feel of a heavy, very chunky hat.
• Folded brim – an extra layer of wool over the ears, which improves warmth in windy weather and helps the beanie sit well on the head.
• Smooth surface, no fuzzy halo – useful if you do not like fluffy textures; however, the knit may feel slightly itchy on very sensitive skin, which is worth keeping in mind if you are highly sensitive to wool.
• Pilling resistance rated as medium – normal daily wear and proper care help maintain a neat appearance, but with frequent rubbing (for example under a hood), the small bobbles typical of wool may appear.
• Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certified yarn – the yarn has been tested for harmful substances, which may matter if you pay attention to material safety in contact with the skin.
• Handmade on knitting needles – each beanie is knitted individually, which allows better control over stitch tension and fit than machine production.

Extras and care

If you like a decorative finish, you can order a matching pom-pom in the same yarn for this beanie – this creates a cohesive beanie with pom-pom, without extra textures or faux fur. You can also choose other wool accessories to go with it, such as a snood, scarf or shawl – you will find them in the handmade wool accessories section, if you would like to put together a set in a similar style or colour palette.

Hand wash the merino beanie in lukewarm water without fabric softener, then dry it flat, reshaping it as needed – you can find detailed guidance in the wool care guide. This will help the beanie last longer and keep its shape better.
