Marni's frayed edges and embroidered logo give this off-white beanie big homemade energy. Everybody knows that the best knitwear looks like your grandma made it, after all.
Seams Hellish Beanie
Hellish Beanie
Seams
If you've heard of Seams, then you probably know them as a jewelry brand out of Sweden. The label has recently branched into apparel, too, and if the Hellish beanie is anything to go by, Seams is going to be a name to watch.
Acne Studios Face Beanie

Acne Studios
The simple face logo has become a central pillar in the Acne Studios aesthetic. This beanie features a checkerboard of the playful logo as well as a leather patch logo to the fold.
The Elder Statesman Bucket Beanie
Bucket Beanie
The Elder Statesman
Somewhere between an unstructured bucket hat and a beanie, you'll find this beautiful cashmere piece. The Elder Statesman offer some of the boldest knitwear on the market, but don't take the bright colors and playful patterns as a lack of seriousness — this is some of the best wool you'll find this season.
Thom Browne Four-Bar Beanie

Thom Browne's signature Four-Bar motif details the rolled-up brim of this beanie. A structured crown offers a nice contrast to the chunky, ribbed roll-up finish.
JW Anderson Swan Beanie

If you've ever been this close to a swan, you'll know that being this close to a swan is always a bad idea. That said, the face-to-face swan detail on this JW Anderson beanie is deceptively charming.
