Black Fair Isle Alpaca Slouch Beanie

Pull it on for a breezy dog walk on the Downs or a cold wait at the bus stop. Wear the deep cuff turned up for a neat beanie, or unroll it for a relaxed slouch.

Each hat is knitted in an alpaca wool blend, mixed with other fibres, including synthetics, for softness, durability and washability. The crown carries a knitted Andean fair isle pattern, and many of the cuffs add a zigzag, Greek-key or diamond band.

It is one size fits all and goes in the washing machine, so it is easy to live with all winter. A warm, cheerful gift for him or her.

This colourway: A black body with a white, red and pink fair isle crown and an orange zigzag cuff.
