My love for Berroco Ultra Alpaca Natural (worsted) was amplified by the addition of the new Ultra Alpaca Chunky Natural. I felt the need for a cowl and matching hat, so I got to work. My suggestion is to knit the hat first, then use the leftovers in the cowl. The hat takes less than one skein, while the cowl takes a little more than two.

Yarn:
