Knit Kit - Roll-up Longdrop Hat

Skill Level - Beginner

This is a straight forward knitting kit using alpaca wool from British and Irish alpacas. The hat kit is perfect for beginners: No ribbing, and only a simple decrease at the end, by which time you will be ready to learn a new technique, having mastered the main two knitting stitches, Knit and Purl. AND we've got How to Videos on every stitch you need to use.  You can knit it in the round or as a flat panel.

Size: Small - Medium - Large

Kit includes:

• Cotton alpaca project bag
• 100g (225m) Gorgeous DK yarn made from 75% alpaca/25% sheep
• Faux fur pompom
• Pattern for this and two more advanced hats to knit
• Optional 4.5mm needles (circular or single pointed) 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 can be washed by hand or in a machine on a wool wash at 20 degrees.
