ORIGINAL HOMESTRETCH HAT MATERIALS

  • 1 skein of Purl Soho’s Gentle Giant, 100% merino wool. Each skein is 48 yards/ 125 grams; approximately 30 (36, 48, 48) yards required. We used White Peppercorn, Heirloom White, Wolf Brown, and Silver Mauve.
  • US 17 (12 mm), 16-inch circular needles

TWO-COLOR HOMESTRETCH HAT MATERIALS

  • Main Color (MC): 1 skein of Purl Soho’s Gentle Giant, 100% merino wool. Each skein is 48 yards/ 125 grams; approximately 27 (33, 45, 45) yards required.
  • Contrast Color (CC): 1 skein of Gentle Giant; approximately 3 yards required.
  • US 17 (12 mm), 16-inch circular needles
  • Optional but helpful: Clover’s Pom Pom Maker, size Large

NOTE: This is enough yarn to make one hat, except you can make two Baby size hats if you switch the colors. Also, if you omit the pom pom, two skeins is enough to make two hats in any size, reversing the colors.
