In the Atlantis Headwear catalogue, the Holly stands out for its material: , a yarn produced with a patented process that reduces energy, water and CO2 consumption during yarn production. The declared CO2 footprint reduction is 55% versus the baseline — among the highest figures of the Atlantis catalogue, more than double that of standard recycled polyester models.

The double-layer construction with a straight cut — no — is an immediate visual difference from beanies with a folded edge: the profile is cleaner, closer to the head shape, with a contemporary look that recalls the knit caps of the urban wardrobe. is available on all four sides with a 12×4.5 cm area — a 360° customisation feature unusual in cuffless beanies, where normally only the front is accessible. The composition is undergoing a batch update; always refer to the inner label for the up-to-date version.
Printing techniques.
A verdict for each one.
What to expect on this specific product, technique by technique.
The Holly has an exceptional embroidery surface for a cuffless beanie: 12×4.5 cm on all four sides — front, back, right and left. This is unusual for cuffless beanies, where side access is normally limited. Polylana® requires a stabilising backing. The circular knit is smoother than ribs and offers good stitch definition. Prefer logos with defined lines and solid areas. Not compatible with 3D puff embroidery.
Patches applicable via perimeter stitching on the front. The cuffless structure reduces the application areas compared with folded-edge models. Heat sealing not recommended on the elastic Polylana® knit. Maximum size: 6×4 cm.
It is the choice for brands with a strong sensitivity to spinning materials, that want to communicate innovation beyond simple certification. The 14 colours — with variants (burgundy melange, light grey melange) and earth tones — cover a wider colour range than the Andy while sharing the urban aesthetic.

For creators with a sustainable brand, the Polylana® -55% CO2 is a powerful narrative element. The cuffless beanie has a more fashion-forward profile than the folded-edge model. Embroidery on all four sides offers creative options for perimeter customisations.
