Hand Knit Ribbed Beanie, Ethically Sourced Wool Hat, Hand Knit Hat, Unisex Knit Beanie, Wildwood Beanie
This beanie is perfect for spring and fall, but plenty warm for winter too. Ethically-sourced Peruvian wool will keep your head warm, and your heart warm too. I use only the highest quality, ethically-sourced yarn to keep you warm and stay looking great over the years!
Hand knit in a stretchy ribbed stitch, it can be worn three ways:
- Fold the brim up high for a nice fitted feel
- Fold the brim less high for a trendy little pouf at the top (shown in video)
- Fold the brim twice to expose your ears when you get hot, or for a fitted look on smaller heads
Materials:
- Based on the color you choose, yarn is either 100% Peruvian Wool or 100% hand-dyed merino wool.
- The multi-colored merino wool yarn is dyed in small lots of 5 skeins each, therefore every hat made with this yarn will be truly unique, and may vary just slightly from the photo.
- I try to capture colors as accurately as possible, but color may vary slightly from your computer screen.
- Natural fibers like merino wool and Peruvian wool are super soft and squishy, and very warm without being scratchy. They are also body odor-resistant, moisture-wicking, breathable, and biodegradable.
Fit and Dimensions:
- Hat fit will stretch to fit teen/adults (18-22").
- Hat measures 12"Hx7"W, unfolded. Hat will fit about 9" high with brim folded up 3".
*If the color you want is sold out, please message me if you would like it to be made for you.*

Frequently Asked Questions
Custom and personalized orders
Occasionally I can accept custom orders, depending on supply availability and capacity. Please send a message with what you're looking for and I'll respond back to let you know if it's possible. Typically I cannot accept custom orders during my busiest time in November through mid-December. If I can accept a custom request, you'll be sent a listing to purchase, and work will begin once the item has been paid for. I will provide an estimated turnaround time at the time of your order, typically 2-4 weeks.
There are no returns on custom orders, and discount codes do not apply.
Care instructions
- Hand wash cold in gentle detergent, reshape and air dry flat.
- Do not put in washing machine or dryer, as this will cause your wool item to felt.
- Remove pom pom before washing for best results (pom pom can be removed by untying from inside).
- Fluff pom pom to refresh by gently brushing with comb or cool heat from a hair dryer.
All wool will stretch over time. If you feel your hat has gotten too stretched out, follow the instructions above to wash it, then reshape it to desired shape, and allow to dry. This should reshape it to its original size.
Sizing details
Detailed measurements of each item are provided in each listing description. Hats are made with chunky merino wool or wool. Hats will be fitted on medium/larger heads with taller foreheads, or slouchy/tall on smaller/medium heads with short foreheads. If you are looking for a very small or very large size, message me and I might be able to customize the fit for you.
If you have any questions about sizing or fit, feel free to send me a message! All listings include a video of the fit on my own head (which is larger, with a tall forehead).
All wool will stretch over time. If your hat feels small (especially at the brim) when it arrives, know that it will stretch over time (after a few wears) and mold to your head shape.
Returns and Exchanges
Due to USPS delays in 2020-2022 along with hygiene factors related to COVID-19, returns are not accepted. Please don't hesitate to message me with any questions or concerns about your order and we'll work together to make it right.
If you have any questions about sizing, fit, or materials before your order, I'm more than happy to send you more info, pics or even a video. I typically respond to messages within an hour or two, so don't hesitate to reach out if you're unsure before you order!
I need a new pom pom!
Lost your pom pom or maybe your pet ate it? Or maybe you just want an additional color so you can switch it out? Send me a message to order a new one.
