A knitted hat traditionally meant to keep oneself warmth in the cold season, but has since been incorporated into fashion and is no longer strictly practical. Common styles of wear include hugging the head with a turned-up cuff, or leaving a few inches of the top unstretched to flop or stick up.
Some knit beanies have puff balls at the top, and some have earflaps.
Also known as a tuque.
