The Eastfold is a beanie hand-knit in Norway with knitting needles, without machinery. It has a richly textured crosshatch pattern. The design lets the knitting technique stand out as the main part of its look.
It is made from 100% Merino wool yarn developed on the Norwegian West Coast. Merino is soft, breathable and comfortable. The wool draws moisture into itself, which keeps skin dry even when sweating, and it is naturally anti-bacterial. It can go a long time with only airing out between washes.
The beanie is a medium thickness, suited to the colder side of spring and fall, and to winter. A temperature range of -5°C/20°F to 15°C/60°F is generally a good fit. It arrives as one long, uniform piece with no tags or markings. It can be worn with a single fold, a double fold, rolled up or unfolded.
