Women's plain-knit 100% cashmere beanie
- 100% cashmere
Virgin cashmere – what this means
Virgin means fibre on its first life: combed from the goat and spun, never part of another garment. It is longer, and that is why the knit stays smooth for longer. Cashmere
Knitted in two-ply yarn – what this means
The yarn is not one strand but two, twisted around each other. A two-ply yarn is more stable in the wash, holds its shape and pills less than a single-ply yarn. Our factory

Yarn certified OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 – what this means
OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 is a laboratory test for harmful substances: the yarn is tested and has to come back free of chemical residues that are hazardous to skin, against limits stricter than the law requires. The certification covers the yarn, not the finished garment: we buy certified yarns and knit them in our family's factory in Prato.
Cashmere certified The Good Cashmere Standard® – what this means
The Good Cashmere Standard® is an independent programme run by the Aid by Trade Foundation and dedicated to the welfare of cashmere goats: the farms that join are audited on how the animals are treated, on working conditions and on how the grazing land is used. It covers the fibre upstream, not the finished garment: we buy certified yarns and knit them in our family's factory in Prato.
Does a 100% cashmere beanie prickle on the forehead?
No. Cashmere doesn't prickle the way ordinary wool can, and the knit can be worn right against the skin.
Does one size fit every head?
It measures 8.75" × 7.75" (22 × 20 cm) and the knit has stretch: it takes the shape of the head and goes back to its own shape once you take it off.
How do I wash it?
Hand wash cool, or use the wool or delicate cycle at 30°C. Don't wring it: press the water out with a towel and dry it flat.
Is there anything to pay on delivery?
No. The price includes VAT and any import charges, and we take care of customs ourselves, so there is nothing to pay the courier when it arrives. It ships free from Italy by FedEx, in 2–5 working days.
What if I need to send it back?
Free returns within 30 days. One free return per order: a second return on the same order is sent back at your own cost, and nothing is deducted from the refund. Orders placed in November and December can be returned until 31 January.

A beanie in plain knit, with no pattern: light enough to sit under a hood or a coat collar without bulk. In mink, with a camel coat; in red, with a black puffer.
100% cashmere. The yarn is two-ply – two strands twisted around each other before knitting – so the knit holds its shape through washing and pills less than a single-ply would. Knitted in our family's factory in Prato, in the Tuscan textile district. Origin traceability certified Tfashion 100% Made in Italy, which certifies the making and not just the label. The yarn is certified OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 and the cashmere is certified The Good Cashmere Standard®.
One size, 8.75" × 7.75" (22 × 20 cm), about 1.25 oz (35 g). Many colours, from warm tones to pastels to darks.
Hand wash cool, or use the wool or delicate cycle at 30°C. Don't wring it: press the water out with a towel and dry flat. Cared for this way, it will last years. Care and washing
