Just like a stone, this beanie is here to stay! In the first year of KAL in 2014 with the first wool we developed this beanie and we love it ever since. It's back and we're happy to have an oldie and goodie online! This beanie is hand-spun and hand-knitted by our team in Himachal Pradesh. The yarn used is black wool and white wool spun together in one thread. The beanie is knitted with lambswool from the Changthang Plateau shorn by the nomad community. The lambswool is taken once of the young sheep at an age of around 7 months and has a fiber length of 100mm. Therefore it is soft and elastic.

Please note: This product is entirely made by hand. Therefore, irregularities in thickness of yarn are characteristic to the craft of handspinning. The fabric and the dye will change over time - the wool is becoming softer and the dyes lighter. Please cold wash only with mild detergent and dry in the shade. Do not soak.
