Description from magazine:
How many people do you know who have a practical winter coat in a shade like black, grey or navy? It’s probably a very nice coat, but at this time of year it might also look a little gloomy. Put a bit of zing in their outdoor clothing by knitting them one of these cheery hats, knitted from super-soft pure alpaca yarn.
