Skill Level - Easy
Once made, you'll have a lovely warm hat. It's fairly quick to make as the yarn is lovely and thick and you get to use some nice larger needles. Made with our softest alpaca-merino mixed yarn, so it is uber-super soft. The style is a bit the same, so comfortable and easy to wear, and you can knit it longer if you like a longer look.
Supplied with:
- Cotton alpaca project bag
- 100gm (175m) Gorgeous Aran made from 50% baby alpaca/50% merino
- Faux fur pompom
- Pattern
- Optional 5.5mm needles

Uses our lovely Alpaca-Merino undyed aran-weight wool.
This is a lovely soft yarn that knits/crochets beautifully, made from 50% baby alpaca / 50% baby merino. 'Baby' alpaca does not mean that we stole the fleece from baby alpacas (crias); it's simply the term used to describe the finest micron fibre available. We mix it with the softest merino wool to give it good structure, stretch and the softest yarn you will fine.

Super wool to knit with.. I haven’t done any knitting for years but found the pattern easy to follow so delighted and very pleased with the result
This kit has very clear instructions for a beginner. With the beauty of alpaca wool.
This was the first time I've knitted with alpaca yarn ,it was beautiful and very soft, a great pattern and very easy to follow, I am an experienced knitter. The only thing I did differently was, I put 6 buttons on which was my mistake, still looks good. The service was excellent fast delivery, I liked the kit so much I've got a another different design, highly recommend
Hi Liz,
Wow, we love the finished look, and your unique button-take. It is really great to personalise anything we make, don't you think? Thank you for a great review and a lovely photo.x
Excellent service fast delivery. Love the wool nice and soft didn't take long to knit it. Will be ordering more soon
Pleased with how quickly the item arrived. Wool looks and feels lovely but it has been put away for a Christmas present so not knitted up yet!
Hi Suzanne
Thank you for your lovely review. Was it a christmas present for yourself? Did you start knitting straight away on Xmas day if it was? I really hope you, or the person you gave it to, enjoys the knitting and the wearing. Do share a photo when completed.x
