A fitted alpaca beanie for the colder season

This alpaca wool beanie comes in a calm, dark blue shade similar to azurite. The turn-up edge and single rib stitch create a simple everyday shape that works well with autumn and winter outfits. Aga chose a ribbed stitch here, so the beanie keeps its fitted character without unnecessary stiffness.

• 100% alpaca provides light, natural protection on colder days, so this beanie works well in autumn and winter.
• The turn-up adds an extra layer around the forehead and ears, giving fuller coverage where cold is usually felt most.
• The single rib stitch helps the beanie sit better on the head, so the shape stays comfortably fitted in wear.
• The medium weight avoids a heavy feel, making it practical for everyday use and easier to wear under a hood.
• The surface has a soft halo that softens the raw look of the knit, but on very sensitive skin it may feel slightly itchy.
• Good resistance to pilling helps it keep a neat appearance for longer, so an alpaca beanie like this holds up well to regular wear.
• Hand-knitted construction gives it a visible, springy texture, which in practice means a more natural drape than machine-knit fabrics.

Extras and care

If you like, we can also make this handmade beanie as a beanie with pom-pom in the same yarn. We can also match it with a scarf, snood or shawl if you want a coordinated set, for example an alpaca beanie and scarf set. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances. This women's alpaca beanie should be hand washed; we have collected the guidance here: how to care for wool accessories. Marta packs each parcel so the knit arrives without creasing from prolonged compression.
