Loving yourself is one of the most important things in life.
This pattern is designed with that thought in mind. Choosing the colours and fibers you love, will make this hat extra special and unique. Ofcourse this can also be a perfect gift for a loved one, only when they really deserve such a special item ofcourse.

yarn
Fingering weight yarn in 3 colours (1 main colour and 2 contrast colours) and a mohair yarn to match the contrast colours. If preffered the mohair can be left out. It’s also possible to use just 1 contrast colour.

yarns used in example
main colour, drops alpaca unicolour, colour 2923, ± 45g, ± 155m
contrast colourA, drops flora unicolour colour 02, ± 10g, ± 30m
contrast colourB, drops alpaca unicolour colour 3112, ± 10g, ± 30m
mohair, drops kid silk unicolour, colour 01,± 7g, ± 60m

If you want to substitute the yarn, please look at the meterage, because alpaca yarn has a different weight for a 100m than for example sheep wool does.
