What moves the price
For knit beanie, the drivers are profile, closure type, decoration method, panel count — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Price is most affected by yarn composition (basic acrylic is cheapest), knit construction/profile (cuffed, ribbed, waffle, or longer silhouette), and decoration method; embroidered or jacquard knit programs cost more than blank or simple print/patch work. Realistic supplier routes are US wholesale blanks/distributors for small-to-mid runs and direct import/OEM sourcing for 5,000+ units, where FOB pricing drops quickly as setup costs are amortized.
