The Difference Between Our Knitting Styles

Cashmere Beanies

At Prinz Berlin, we are committed to redefining the boundaries of luxury through innovative knitting techniques and meticulous cashmere care. Our beanies, made entirely from the finest cashmere, embody the evolution of traditional knitting methods by combining artisanal craftsmanship with modern design. We experiment with various knitting techniques such as rib, fine, and classic knits to create textures that not only enhance the softness of the cashmere but also give each piece a unique touch. Our careful cashmere care ensures that each accessory retains its luxurious feel and lasting quality—making our beanies a true statement of elegance and comfort.

Cashmere Beanie Fine Knit

Features

Fine Knit: The stitches are very small and tightly knitted, giving the fabric a smooth, soft surface. This results in a more understated and elegant knit pattern.

Lightweight and Thin: Because fine yarn is used, fine-knit pieces are lightweight and thin while still providing warmth. This knitting style is ideal for garments like scarves or beanies that should feel soft against the skin.

Flexibility and Comfort: The tight-knit structure offers flexibility and high wearing comfort, as the fabric comfortably conforms to the head.

Style and Occasion

Versatility: The fine-knit style is particularly versatile—it complements an urban streetwear look just as well as an elegant winter outfit. The beanie is the perfect combination of stylish understatement and luxurious quality, ideal for those who appreciate subtle yet impactful details.

Unisex: Our fine-knit beanies are unisex and worn by both men and women.

Styling: The fine-knit beanie embodies a minimalist, elegant look that combines timeless sophistication with top-notch comfort. The finely knitted stitches create a smooth, soft surface, giving the beanie a simple yet refined character. It fits lightly and snugly on the head, providing pleasant warmth without bulk.

Cashmere Beanie Classic Knit

Features

Classic Knit: Compared to Fine Knit, Classic Knit uses thicker yarns and larger stitches. This creates a coarser, textured surface that makes the knit visibly and tangibly prominent.

Warmth and Volume: With a thicker and airier knit pattern, Classic Knit provides exceptional warmth, making it ideal for cozy winter accessories like scarves or beanies.

Robust Construction: The use of thicker yarns and larger stitches results in a particularly sturdy and durable Classic Knit construction. This technique gives the knitted pieces a long-lasting structure that retains its shape even with frequent wear.

Style and Occasion

Traditional Look: Classic Knit has a timeless, classic style reminiscent of handmade knitwear. This knitting style is often used for rustic or sporty designs that exude coziness.

Unisex: Our Classic Knit beanies are unisex and worn by both men and women.

Styling: Classic Knit works beautifully as a contrast to smooth, minimalist materials. Pair a Classic Knit beanie or scarf with a simple, structured wool coat or leather jackets to emphasize the textural contrast between smooth and rough.

Cashmere Beanie Rib Knit

Features

Rib Knit is a special knitting technique characterized by alternating rows of knit and purl stitches. This creates a structured, ribbed surface. Rib Knit has some distinct features that set it apart from other knitting styles:

Ribbed Structure: The alternating knit and purl stitches create visible ribs or grooves, giving the knitted piece a three-dimensional texture. This structure is very pronounced and gives the beanie a defined appearance.

Warmth and Insulation: The dense ribs provide an additional layer of warmth by trapping air between the stitches. This makes Rib Knit pieces particularly warm and insulating.

Style and Occasion

Textured Appearance: The ribbed surface adds depth and a subtle pattern to the outfit, making it ideal for minimalist looks that still stand out.

Unisex: Our Rib Knit beanies are unisex and worn by both men and women.

Styling: Rib Knit can be integrated into casual outfits as well as styled for more elegant looks.
