Beanies & Watch Caps
At Ivy Ellis, every detail matters — from sourcing the finest materials to crafting accessories that are built to last.
Our Cousteau Beanies are a refined take on the classic watch cap, designed in the UK and made from 100% lambswool for exceptional softness, warmth, and breathability. We spent over a year perfecting the fit, texture, and structure to create what we believe is the ideal lambswool beanie.
Each hat is woven, washed, and finished with care to achieve a clean silhouette and a comfortable, structured fit. Whether you’re heading into the cold or simply layering up in style, the Cousteau Beanie is a timeless essential — understated, functional, and elevated in every way.
