MATERIALS

  • 1 of Purl Soho’s Nine-Note Bundle, 9 skeins of 80% extra fine merino wool and 20% baby alpaca. Each skein of this light worsted/dk-weight yarn is 100 yards/ 50 grams; approximately 65 (80, 100, 115, 135) yards required per hat. We used the Juniper palette.

NOTE: These gradient colors are only available in Nine-Note Bundles, but you can buy individual skeins of Note, the same yarn but in 100-gram skeins and a different palette.

NOTE: Pom poms take an additional 15–40 yards of Nine-Note Bundle or another light worsted/dk-weight yarn. We made our pom poms with the Begonia palette of a Nine-Note Bundle.

One Nine-Note Bundle makes at least 9 solid color hats in Baby, Kid, or Toddler sizes. Adult hats require more than 1 skein, so you’ll have to get creative. Use the leftover yarn from smaller hats to make colorblocks, or pick up 2 or more skeins to make a striped hat. Play with the nine beautiful shades in your bundle!
