Alpaca beanie without a turn-up, in a beanie shape with an elongated back, is a medium-weight style for autumn and winter with a distinct rib stitch. This piece is already made and ready to ship, so there is no waiting time.
Light grey for everyday wear
This style is for those who like a simple shape and a calm colour. The grey shade is light, cool and even, without a marl effect, so it pairs easily with everyday coats, jackets and scarves. The elongated back gives this handmade alpaca beanie a more relaxed line. In a classic grey, it also works well as a gift beanie.
100% alpaca and skin contact
This model is made from 100% alpaca. Alpaca fibre insulates well while remaining relatively lightweight, and the surface of the knit shows a subtle halo and a slight sheen. This style may feel a little scratchy on very sensitive skin because of the alpaca fibres.
Beanie without a turn-up
This is a beanie without a turn-up, handmade on knitting needles in a single rib stitch. The beanie shape with an elongated back creates a softer, longer line than a classic hat that finishes close to the head. Aga makes these styles in advance throughout the year, which is why our handmade pieces are available ready to ship even when seasonal made-to-order items usually require a longer wait; the piece is finished with a Nitkowe Love eco-leather label.
In wear and care
- The medium weight gives coverage for colder autumn and winter days, without feeling heavy on the head.
- Alpaca helps maintain thermal comfort in a relatively lightweight knit, so this alpaca beanie works well for regular wear.
- High resistance to pilling means easier wear through the season and fewer quick changes on the yarn surface.
- The rib stitch creates a clear vertical texture that gives structure to the simple shape of the beanie.
- The light grey colour stays even across the whole surface, while the knit catches the light gently.
- The lack of a turn-up reduces bulk at the edge, giving the whole piece a lighter, simpler look.
