MINGA | Mom's Rainbow Striped Baby Alpaca Beanie

Inspired by my mom's vintage beanie this is the silliest, most fun beanie you'll find. Made with our new, ultra soft baby-alpaca fiber, each knit alpaca beanie is made by hand by our family friends in Ecuador and one of a kind. Alpaca wool has the characteristics of being waterproof and maintaining the body heat at a healthy temperature by allowing excess heat out but maintaining enough warmth in. Our team at MINGA partners with a small team of knitters to create our knitwear. These highly-skilled women knitters work from their homes scattered around the mountains of Imbabura, Ecuador. Our hats are handmade and one-of-a-kind. This means that no two are exactly alike and almost all contain irregularities from size to color. Please allow for slight imperfections as this is what adds to the unique character of each hat.
