The pattern doesn’t say, but it’s meant to be knit with two strands of yarn.

An English version of the pattern is in the making.

Lima, Orly, Pom Pom Vintage and Big Boom Bow are all variations to the same basic beanie.
The pattern is easy to knit for beginning knitters. It’s basic, but barely boring. The XL features make it an easy going accessory, inspired by the skate/snowboard scene. It’s a bulky knit and has large eyecatching ribbing. It’s loose fit so you’ll be able to wear it loosely or fold it in the back of your neck for a more fitting look. Any way you wear it, wear it ‘easy’!

Enjoy Knitting and feel free to use a non-acrylic yarn. ;-)
