Denim Softness

Looks good in photo, and I loved the color, but even though it had the soft feel of alpaca, it was very thin yarn for the price, and also too large for my head. Returned it.

This is my new go to hat. The color is deep and rich and the workmanship is beautiful. Alpaca wool is the best.

I bought this as a gift for my wife. She requested an alpaca hat - in blue - to match a blue coat she had. I doubted if one was available, but went looking. I needed dimension specs, as she needs something fairly large. Does she like it?: "I love my beautiful new hat! The denim color is rich, and the baby alpaca fibers are so soft -- those who find other wool itchy enjoy relief with alpaca. The hat's design adds to its beauty, with panels of one stitch alternating with bands of another stitch -- this helps create comfortable grip that keeps the masterful stitching aligned when the hat is worn. Also, the hat has no seam, which adds to the comfort and appearance. I love the little floral finish, too, and appreciate that the larger size is available (for those of us outside the "one size fits all" zone). This hat evokes warmth: warm clothing in cold weather, warm regard for the artist, and warm feelings for the giver, who searched until he found the perfect hat. Sincerely, Susan"
