Ruby chunky wool beanie for freezing winter days

JANKA is a chunky women’s winter beanie (also works well as a unisex style), hand-knitted with needles from a single strand of thick wool yarn. The ribbed stitch and deep turn-up create a dense layer of knit that covers the ears and forehead well on windy days. The ruby shade combines red and burgundy tones, so the beanie adds colour to winter outerwear without looking too bright. The surface of the knit is smooth, with a light fuzzy halo typical of classic sheep’s wool.

• Chunky wool knit – made from thick yarn with a substantial stitch, this beanie is a good choice if you are looking for a really warm winter hat for walks and everyday wear in lower temperatures.
• Turn-up brim – the adjustable fold lets you vary how much of the ears and forehead is covered depending on the weather, and the beanie stays securely on the head.
• Ribbed stitch – the stretchy beanie knit helps it adapt to different head shapes and gives it a characteristic chunky look.
• Against the skin – wool may feel slightly scratchy, especially on very sensitive skin; if you have a low tolerance for wool, consider a thinner, gentler yarn.
• Pilling resistance: low to medium – a few small pills may appear in areas of frequent friction (for example under a hood), which is natural for this type of wool.
• Autumn–winter season – as a warm winter beanie, it works well for everyday wear, walks, and with both a coat and a puffer jacket; it is a good option for frosty and windy city weather.
• Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certified – the yarn has been tested for harmful substances, which may matter if you pay attention to fibre composition and safety.
• Handmade – each beanie is made separately on knitting needles, which helps control the stitch thickness and finishing; individual pieces may vary slightly.
• Eco-leather label – it can be unclipped before washing, which makes care easier and also lets you wear the beanie without extra detailing.

How to care for the JANKA wool beanie

This chunky wool beanie does not need frequent washing – wool naturally regenerates, so in most cases it is enough to air it out and store it flat. When it does need refreshing, wash it by hand only in cool water with a gentle detergent, then dry it flat and reshape it while drying.
