Arctic Alpaca Hat Pattern
This Arctic Alpaca Hat Pattern is perfect for those cold wintry months. Originally knitted from handmade alpaca yarn, this hat knitting pattern would work with any worsted weight yarn and makes a cozy cold weather accessory. This free knitting pattern will show you how to make the perfect addition to your own winter wardrobe or a handmade gift for a friend. While this is an easy knitting pattern, it has more style and detail than most basic hat patterns, so it's a good way to stretch yourself if you're still a beginning knitter.

I love this hat. It is simple but is different. I agree with the prior remarks. A chunkier yarn will probably be better or use you have to watch your gauge. I always have to watch my gauge anyway since I have a small head. But it will be an unusual hat and you won't see many of them. Great for gifts as well. Thank you.

This is a great pattern, and I love the layered buttons too. The blogger made the hat with homespun alpaca yarn, so it was chunky/bulky. Therefore if you substitute worsted weight yarn, you should be careful to make sure the hat fits as you make it. You might do better using a heavier weight yarn as a substitute for the alpaca.
