The APU KUNTUR PACA Beanie combines 87% baby alpaca with 13% merino wool. Its stretchy ribbed knit and simple shape make it a versatile winter beanie for women and men. A small sewn-on leather label adds a subtle accent. PACA is designed as a one-size-fits-all item and is made in a family-run business in Cusco, Peru, according to the manufacturer.
The soft material blend provides a warm layer for walks, everyday wear, and travel in cooler temperatures. The beanie can be paired with wool coats, jackets, and scarves without relying on bold patterns. Six color options are available in the PeruMagazin shop: Black, Seafoam, Taupe, Cornflower, Ultramarine, and Ecru. Availability depends on the supplier's current stock.

Design and Comfort
PACA is a classic beanie with a uniform ribbed structure. Unlike a beanie with a cable or jacquard pattern, it has a deliberately understated look. The ribbed knit gives the material elasticity and a distinct vertical structure. The small leather label complements the design without dominating it. The beanie can be worn for everyday wear, travel, or walks.
The alpaca and merino material blend makes it a warm addition to fall and winter wardrobes. Actual warmth perception depends on the weather, wind, activity, and individual preferences. PACA is not certified protective equipment, and no specific temperature limits or guaranteed wind resistance are provided.

Material and Properties
Textile material composition: 87% alpaca (baby alpaca), 13% wool (merino).
Baby alpaca refers to a fine quality grade of alpaca fiber rather than necessarily the age of the animal. The fiber is known for its soft feel and warming properties. Merino wool is also a natural animal fiber. Due to the wool and leather label, the beanie is not vegan. General allergen-free properties or suitability for particularly sensitive skin are not guaranteed; personal comfort may vary.
Non-textile component of animal origin: Sewn-on leather label. The fiber composition information refers to the textile material, not the leather label.
Size and Fit
Size: One size / One size fits all.
Target audience: Women and men (unisex).
Shape: Classic beanie.
Structure: Stretchy ribbed knit.
Manufacturer item number: 07256 or 07256U1P00, according to the manufacturer.
A binding head circumference or beanie height in centimeters is not stated in the available supplier data set. Therefore, no measurements are invented. The stretch of the material does not mean that one size fits everyone equally. If you are unsure about the fit, we recommend inquiring before purchasing.
Care and Storage
APU KUNTUR recommends hand washing for PACA. The beanie should be handled carefully with a suitable wool detergent and without vigorous rubbing or wringing. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or dry clean. If ironing is necessary and permitted by the care label, use only at a maximum of 110°C without steam. The care label on the delivered item always takes precedence.
After cleaning, gently reshape the beanie and let it dry flat. For regular refreshing, careful airing may suffice. For long-term storage, fold it neatly and completely dry so that the elastic structure is not unnecessarily stretched. Avoid direct heat and vigorous rubbing.
