An alpaca turn-up beanie for everyday wear

This style comes in a warm wheat beige tone, with a simple, practical look. The KIARA alpaca beanie has a close fit without looking bulky, so it works well with both a coat and a jacket. Aga chose a single rib here, which helps the knit keep its elasticity and sit well on the head.

• Medium weight works well through the autumn–winter season, so the beanie is comfortable to wear on colder days without too much bulk.
• The folded cuff at the forehead adds an extra layer of knit, which improves ear coverage and helps the beanie stay in place during wear.
• The single rib stitch gives the whole construction flexibility, so the fitted shape sits better on the head.
• The surface with a gentle halo gives it a softer, fluffier look, but on very sensitive skin it may feel slightly itchy.
• 100% alpaca gives this wool beanie a light feel while keeping the seasonal warmth, so the style does not feel heavy.
• Good resistance to pilling helps it keep a neat appearance for longer, so the beanie stands up better to regular wear.

Extras and care

For this style, we can add a matching pom-pom made from the same yarn, if you would like to order the beanie with a pom-pom in a coordinated colour. We can also make matching accessories from the same group of handmade pieces, such as a scarf, snood or shawl, which makes it easier to put together a set such as an alpaca beanie and scarf. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances in line with Oeko-Tex® Standard 100. Hand wash the beanie and dry it flat to help it keep its shape — we have gathered the details in a short guide: how to care for wool accessories.
