Welcome chilly weather in style and fight off the chill with our Gray Interwoven Alpaca Beanie! This beanie is designed to be perfectly slouchy, so you can look stylish and feel warm wherever you go. In gorgeous gray threads interwoven to create a textured look that looks just as great matching your favorite coat as it does against more casual wear. Not only is this beanie great for keeping you warm, but it also takes care of the environment – alpaca fiber is considered by the fashion industry to be one of the greenest and most natural fibers available, making it an excellent choice for those looking to reduce their environmental impact. It’s not just good for the planet though; alpaca fiber also feels silkier and softer than regular wool, meaning this beanie will keep its luxuriousness all season long without pilling or wearing out. And with every beanie being handmade with love in Peru, their unique variations make each piece an individual work of art that you can treasure for many winters to come!

Artisan Profile

Allpa has 80 small to midsize workshops located throughout Peru. Through their textile production, they strive to create awareness and preserve Peruvian culture. Allpa develops annual collections according to market trends and supports the growth of artisans with technical assistance, training and loans. This transforms weavers into entrepreneurs and gives them access to the global marketplace.

In the earliest Peruvian history, you will find examples of the bond between the Incas and alpaca. During the Inca empire, alpaca was only used by royalty because it was valued as the finest material. Alpaca is supple and smooth to the touch. It’s softer than cashmere and warmer and stronger than lamb’s wool. It contains microscopic air pockets which create lightweight clothing with excellent insulating properties. It is a completely natural fiber and there is no use of harsh chemicals in production.

The alpaca live mostly without any boundaries in the highlands of the Peruvian Andes and are not harmed during the shearing process. Their soft padded feet are gentle on the grass terrain and they graze without destroying the root system of the area. Alpaca is the only animal that produces up to 28 natural colors and can be blended into an infinite array of natural shades from inky black to warm chestnuts and snowy white. It is easily dyed in any color and always retains its natural luster.
