Turn-up alpaca beanie in a medium weight for autumn and winter, with a close-fitting beanie shape, a defined rib stitch, and a deep ruby shade with burgundy and violet undertones. This piece is ready to ship, so we can send it without waiting for it to be made.
A ruby shade for colder months
This model is for those who like dark colours, but not black or grey. The shade is rich, cool-toned and solid, without any marl effect, and it shifts slightly on the ribs in the light. This alpaca wool beanie works well for everyday wear in autumn and winter, and in a darker colourway it also makes a good gift beanie. Aga makes these styles in advance throughout the year, so there is no seasonal waiting list here.
100% alpaca and next-to-skin feel
This is 100% alpaca with Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certification. Alpaca fibre is lightweight and insulating, and this beanie has a delicate visible halo on the surface. This model may feel slightly itchy on very sensitive skin — that is natural for alpaca and worth keeping in mind if the forehead area reacts to fine fibres.
Beanie shape with a turn-up
The HELEN model is a turn-up beanie with a close fit, made in a single rib stitch. The turn-up is wide and clearly defined, which gives the lower edge a neat shape while keeping the overall look classic and simple. This is a handmade alpaca beanie made by hand on a knitting machine.
- Medium weight – gives coverage for colder autumn and winter days without feeling heavy on the head.
- The turn-up edge frames the face neatly and gives the beanie a more classic look.
- High resistance to pilling – with everyday wear, the surface keeps a tidy appearance for longer.
- The lightly fluffy alpaca surface softens the sharper look of the ribbing and gives the knit a gentler texture.
- The solid ruby-burgundy colour with a violet note pairs easily with dark coats, jackets and scarves.
- The rib stitch gives the beanie a clear vertical texture that shows the colour and light-and-shadow effect of the knit well.
