Ruby alpaca beanie for everyday wear

This alpaca beanie comes in a deep ruby shade with burgundy-purple undertones. The folded brim keeps the shape neat at the forehead, while the single rib gives the whole piece an elastic, clean look. Aga chose a rib stitch here so the beanie keeps its fitted character without unnecessary stiffness.

• 100% alpaca in a medium weight gives warmth suited to cooler autumn and winter days, so this beanie fits easily into everyday wear.
• The folded brim adds an extra layer around the forehead and ears, so this part of the beanie offers more coverage than styles without a turn-up.
• The single rib helps the beanie sit better on the head, so the shape stays fitted and does not look heavy.
• The surface has a soft halo that gives it a gentler, fluffier look, but on very sensitive skin it may feel slightly itchy.
• Its strong resistance to pilling helps the knit keep a neat appearance for longer with normal use.

Extras and care

For this style, we can add a matching pom-pom made from the same yarn if you would like a beanie with pom-pom in the same colour. If you would like to create an alpaca beanie and scarf set, you can also order a snood, scarf or shawl from us: see matching wool accessories. The yarn has been tested for harmful substances. This women's alpaca beanie requires hand washing and drying flat to help it keep its shape; you can find a short guide here: how to care for wool. If we send it ready made, Marta packs the parcel so the knit does not lose its shape in transit.
