I was feeling nostalgic this weekend and pulled a hat kit out of my stash. This pattern and yarn combo was sent to me by two very dear friends I never get to see.

The pattern is the Bluestem Beanie by Rebekah Lil and the yarn is a kit from Amber Waves Dye Studio. You hold yarn double to get worsted but the components are the Alpaca Cloud DK held with Kid Silk Fluff. So basically DK weight in alpaca with a silk/mohair laceweight.

This is the SOFTEST combo I have ever felt! I am really excited about this as a change of pace from my other hats. There are not very many projects on Ravelry so I will see how this tests out!

Happy Knitting!!
