Your no. 1 provider of hand knit wool beanies.
Since my grandma began knitting in 1932 the needles have been going steadily in our family, and in 2016 we decided to make a beanie brand out of it. Our beanies are all hand knit wool beanies, fisherman beanies, watch caps, toques, knit caps - whatever you might call them - and each one is still made the old fashioned way.
Along with hand knit beanies, there is always some Norwegian culture and heritage that bleeds through the brand. Our love for nature, hand made goods and the quiet tap of the needles, as the wind rushes the birches on the outside of my mother's house. To me it is all heritage, every stitch of the story.
The forming of the brand in 2016 began when I discovered a love for red beanies and the adventures they represent. From there I proposed to my mother that we should design our own red hat, and try to see if other people wanted it. From there we have expanded and found our tone - all centered on hand knit wool beanies.

Red has a significance - it means adventure and resistance, the striving for freedom and the longing for home, but for some very particular reasons.

Wonderful story and great production values. You are really shining! It makes me even more grateful for the Norwegian wool beanie you provided. Thank you Benjamin.
Thank you !
Now i know i need a fisherman beanie specifically, thx bro 😂
Thanks for the video. Nice to get a feel for the people in your company. Wish all to be well with your family. You make very good, natural products. My wife and daughters love your beanies. Very warm. Keep up your endeavors. It’s a great dream.
Thanks :) glad your whole family love em :)
This level of humility and honesty will sustain every faction of your life, not just your company. Much admiration. (And, I LOVE my two beanies)
thank you so much :) glad you love the beanies
id love to meet the knitters in Norway. it is the story behind the beanie that is so enchanting.
PS no offence to you tho, as i found thus vid was helpful to me as i build my own small business.
Let me know if you come to Norway!
@12:00 LOL
you caught it :)
Very Cool to watch K´s process
yeah!
Damn look at that
It’s not virgin wool is it?
I have not had any information as to the relationship status of the sheep involved.
@ ok thanks for replying anyway
@ Jesus loves you he’s real ❤️
I'm in love with my Southlander! I just ordered an East fold!
@ love it!!
You deserve more views and subscribers you are very talented
Not enough likes on this video.
I needed this bro, apparently I got a fat head cause idk how it stretched so bad😭
glad it helped :)
Disgusting
This is horrible. How could one achieve that level of stupidity? Why would you take a historical uniform and use it for caps! You're insane. Just stop, use something else. There are so many different kinds of materials you can use, yet you chose to ruin a piece of history for your silly caps?
This is horrible. You're ruining history! shame on you
Very cool beanies. Quite expensive. Definitely not priced for a simple village fisherman.
Thanks :) In the simple village fisherman scenario, it would also not need to be marketed and shipped around the world. And I bet the hourly rate for knitters would be slightly different at such a time and place.
I love beanies too
I will keep this in mind thank you so much!
Hi... Are your 100% merino wool beanies suitable for wearing in the summer? I have a bald head and don't like wearing ball caps.
They are ok! Not for the hottest days, but once the wind picks up a bit, a cloudy day, or a cool evening/morning, it's perfect
You monster
What are to be next? Мaking a Tea Pots from books? Or toilet paper? I hate you for your actions! Never use military uniform!
you're insane for thinking anyone would actually like you doing this.
Wow thats so cool 😎
Thank you!
@@redhatfactory you're welcome 😊
This is all well and good but I live in Arizona. Its 112 right now with high humidity due to monsoon season. There is also not much cooling after the sun goes down. Its 95-100 at night. Yet, I still see people walking around with a beabie on.
BRO DON’T RUIN HISTORY THOSE UNIFORMS CANNOT BE MADE AGAIN ONLY REPLICAS
I’m going to be honest, if it doesn’t cover the ears what is the point?
Hide your bald spot
I'm a 61 yo woman who has finally embraced my love of beanies. Wear them everyday. My collection is growing. Finally got the courage to do a buzz cut, too. Sometimes it takes a while to embrace our true selves. Don't care what anyone else says to me or thinks about me. I've embraced a personal style that I love and my only regret is that I didn't do this sooner!
sweet :)
As long it’s not original
Bro if u keep making out of Swedish uniforms then😭
Nooooooo you ruined my country’s uniform
You’re destroying historic garments to make these horribly tacky, shitty designed caps. You should feel ashamed, but you already did this, so you’ve no shame in your body apparently
Congratulations on the new studio,I wish much success on all your future endeavors.
Thank you :)
wow, taking old military history and ruining it, atleast use reproduktion parts instead of originals
Stfu. Why would you wear wool hats in blistering heat? Why would you wear a winter hat in the summer at all! Have you ever heard of like other hats? Like a baseball cap or a truckers hat. Also the sweat from your body and hair is pretty …a disgusting …b out of season …c take care if your hygenie better
Searched for this yesterday and tried it at night. It worked. Thank you bro!
Lovely!
good editing
I must say Benjamin, I got my hat (southlander) I just love it. You can tell they are made with care. I think it is absolutely amazing that you sell these and they are hand made. I am think about getting other colors. Do you do this all on your own... or do you have business partners?
Thanks a lot! We are a few ppl involved. My mom, and I are doing most of it, then my wife helps out sometimes, I occasionally pay my neighbour to help pack up shipments and answer customer support and such. And then of course its all the knitters my mom are managing in Norway.
nahh this is so funny it took me a while to realise it was an ad xD
mission accomplished *proud* :)
😍😍😍😍😍
Yes! This is amazing video! I need to know how to fold beanie!😢
Wooow! I understand the fisherman style! Thank you!🙏🏼
awesome: ) thank you
Great video thank you!🙏🏼
How to fold beanie for fisherman style? 😢
great vid, def my favorite type of hat!
thanks!
Wonderful❣️ Very interesting, thank you for making this video❣️
thank you
Very cool
It would be cool if you could add some black licorice to the orders for a little extra $! Hard to get good licorice in the US. Would be a fun add on.
Haha. That's not a bad idea. Sneak it in inside the beanies
are you going to add a new color of yarn to the Eastfold or just going to stick with the existing green/beige colors? I waited too long and missed out on the red ones =(
We wanna add a few more. I'd love to hear what youd like to see :)
Sorry you missed it. The yarn is gone forever as far as I know.
@@redhatfactory personally, I'd love an orange one, not a bright orange, but more like a richer muted orange, kinda like leaves in fall.

Kjeragsbolten in Norway. Only heard of one fatality nearby and it was a man who base jumped with his friends, in the fog surrounding the rock.
There are a lot of base jumpers there. We've seen em on 2/3 times weve been there. ANd unfortunately there are a lot of accidents with that
