JANKA Women's Chunky Yarn Beanie 48 Nugat Nitkowe Love

JANKA is a thick women’s winter beanie with an extended back, hand-knitted from 100% wool for autumn and winter. This piece is ready to ship, so we can send it without any waiting time.

A nougat shade and a looser shape at the back

We recommend this style if you’re looking for a warm wool beanie for cold days and prefer an oversized shape without a turn-up. JANKA has an extended back and a distinct single rib, so it stands out through its construction rather than added details. The nougat shade is a muted, warm brown, which pairs easily with winter coats and jackets. Aga makes beanies throughout the year to keep some pieces ready in advance, so our handmade items are available to ship even once the season is already underway.

Sheep’s wool and how it feels at the forehead

This is a wool beanie made from sheep’s wool yarn with a smooth surface and a light halo. Wool holds air well within the knitted structure, so this chunky beanie works well in low temperatures. This style may feel slightly itchy on very sensitive skin. The yarn is certified to Oeko-Tex® Standard 100, which means it has been tested for harmful substances.

A beanie without a turn-up

JANKA is handmade on needles, without a turn-up, in a longer beanie shape. On the head, it gives a more relaxed, slightly slouchy shape at the back than short, close-fitting styles. The wide, clearly defined ribbing helps organise the shape of this thick yarn beanie. If you need a different size, please contact us.

• Large stitches and dense wool knit hold quite a lot of air, so the beanie is warm on winter days.
• The oversized shape with an extended back gives a looser finish at the back instead of a close fit.
• The lack of a turn-up reduces bulk at the forehead, so the overall look stays simple and clean.
• The single rib helps the beanie keep its shape and makes it easier to fit when putting it on.
• Medium resistance to pilling means that with regular wear, small signs of use may appear over time.
• The warm nougat brown and solid colour make the beanie easy to pair with an everyday wardrobe.
• With this amount of knit, the beanie may be too warm for mild autumn weather and takes up more space under a hood.

Label and care

The beanie has an eco-leather Nitkowe Love label. If you’d like to see other ready-to-ship handmade wool pieces, we’ve gathered them in a separate section. Wool should be hand washed in water up to 30°C using a gentle wool detergent, for example SOAK wash; wash in lukewarm water, as hot water causes thick wool to felt irreversibly.
