This alpaca wool knit kit uses alpaca yarn from British and Irish farms. It can be knitted in the round on circular needles or as a flat panel using single pointed needles. The wool comes with the highest recommendation from customers and is available in a wide range of choices (see next images). You can knit this as a flat panel, or in the round.
Sizes: Small - Medium - Large
Kit includes:
- Cotton project bag
- 100g (225m) Gorgeous DK yarn made from 75% alpaca/25% sheep
- Pattern for this and two other lightweight hats
- Faux fur pompom
- Optional 4.5mm needles, a cable needle and a tapestry needle
As with all Gorgeous alpaca DK kits, it's warm and cosy, but lightweight and breathes well. The alpaca yarn has a small amount of 100% natural sheep's wool blended in, which makes it easy to knit with, and still retains that wonderful alpaca softness. This hat, once knitted up, can be washed by hand or in a machine on a wool wash at 20 degrees.

I bought the kit and it came with 3 hat patterns so I made the cable hat. It has knitted up beautifully, so soft and a joy to knit with. Delivery is speedy too!
Lovely wool nice and soft. It knitted up very quickly. Speedy delivery. Loving the kits will be ordering more. Thank you .
The yarn “split” constantly while knitting almost seemed to have been spun too loosely. Also one ball had 3 joining knots!!!
I have knitted several times with Alpaca yarn from a different company and never had a problem with yarn splitting.
I look forward to your comments
Hi Karen,
I hope we have solved this problem. When you gave your review you were not aware of our 100% guarantee and replacement policy. We sent out a replacement ball and I think you are happy now, but do let us know?
Thanks and apologies again,
Emma
This super soft yarn is a joy to knit up. I made the pair of wrist warmers in an evening, lots of yarn left over. Great product, great service and great finished garment. I would highly recommend.
This is possibly the best natural yarn I’ve ever used. It’s luxuriously soft and knits up like a dream.
The pattern was indeed restful, so easy but looks fabulous.
The kits were delivered in a couple of days and I love the little tote bags, I’m going to use one for gifting my knits!
Although it online it feels as though you get personal service.
There is plenty of yarn for the project.
