Copper brown and a close-fitting shape for the colder season

This is the HELEN style in a warm brown tone, with a visible vertical rib and a turn-up cuff that gives a neater line across the forehead. This alpaca beanie works well for everyday wear in autumn and winter, when warmth and flexible fit both matter. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances.

• 100% alpaca provides light, natural protection on colder days, so the beanie works well from autumn into winter.
• The single rib stretches across the width, so the beanie shape adjusts better to the head and does not create a stiff, structured look.
• The turn-up cuff adds an extra layer around the ears and forehead, so this area is covered more fully than in styles without a cuff.
• The surface has a delicate halo, which gives it a softer, more cocooning look, but on very sensitive skin it may feel slightly itchy.
• The medium weight keeps the shape from feeling too heavy, so the beanie sits easily on the head for everyday wear.
• High resistance to pilling helps the knit keep a more even appearance over time, so the beanie holds up better to regular use.

Extras and care

If you like, we can make this style as a beanie with pom-pom in the same colour and yarn. You can also order a matching scarf, snood or shawl if you are looking for a coordinated set such as an alpaca beanie and scarf. Aga made this piece by hand on a knitting machine in a simple, close-fitting stitch, which keeps the shape clear and without unnecessary bulk.
