Intermediate Knitting

This is knitted in Fisherman's Rib, a lovely more 3-dimensional look than traditional ribbing. It is fairly similar, and related to brioche, but much easier and quicker. Not recommended for beginners, but simple to learn once you have mastered the basics. Made with our sofest 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.

If you just want the hat or the scarf, just select them instead.

Supplied in natural alpaca shade - an off white. Really suitable for vegetable dyes if you ever get bored of the white as this yarn receives colours really well.

You can choose the colour of the pompom during checkout.

Supplied with 300g (175m per 100g) Gorgeous Aran yarn made from 50% baby alpaca/50% baby merino, 5.5mm needles, a darning needle, and a faux fur pompom.

The Wool

Uses our lovely Alpaca-Merino undyed aran-weight wool from Peru.

  • Meterage: 175m (191) yds) per 100g
  • Ball size: 100g
  • Tension: 18 sts 24 rows, in 10cm (4 in),over st st, using 5.5 mm needles

  • Yarn weight: Aran

    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.

Hand washing: Use lukewarm water and a specialist wool detergent. Hair conditioner in the final rinse will add extra softness.
When washing and rinsing squeeze the garment rather than rubbing.
Gently squeeze out excess water before rolling in a towel. Lay flat to dry.

Washing machines: Modern machines with delicate programme at 20C using a wool delicate detergent. Can be spun at 400 RPM

Frequently Asked Questions

Natural fibers are biodegradable and decompose naturally, unlike synthetic fibers, which take over 200 years to degrade. During this time, they contribute to landfill waste, release greenhouse gases, and leach toxic chemicals into the environment.

Alpaca material is stain-resistant, which means that it needs less washing and is less likely to get ruined by stains … and alpaca is stain-resistant without having chemicals and coatings added to it to make it so.

Sustainable Fashion Story

Alpaca yarn is naturally wrinkle-resistant, eliminating the need for ironing and reducing energy consumption. This helps lower carbon emissions, with ironing estimated to produce 190 kg of CO₂ per person annually.

Unlike sheep and goats, alpacas graze sustainably by trimming grass instead of uprooting it. This allows the grass to regrow naturally, preserving the soil and supporting healthy ecosystems.
