This hat is worked in the round from bottom up. It has a simple cable pattern on a stocking stitch background, creating a gentle pattern which reminded me of linked arms. I used Rowan Alpaca Wool which has softness and halo from the alpaca, but body and structure from the wool. It used almost exactly 50g and was a quick knit ideal for gifts
