This isn't actually Angie's own hat, but was designed especially for my friend Angie, but it's proven very popular so I thought I'd make some more.
This 100% Alpaca wool hand-knitted hat in dark grey and light teal is soft and warm, fitted nicely around the brim but with plenty of room at the top so you don't get squashed flat hat-hair after wearing it.
60 cm circumference around the brim, unstretched.

Because this is 100% untreated wool, you can't just chuck it in the washing machine, unfortunately. Either use a special wool machine wash, or preferably wash by hand in warm water. Don't use fabric softener!
Wring it out after washing inside a tea-towel to get rid of excess water. Reshape while damp, and dry flat if possible. To stop it curling up after drying you can steam iron back into shape using a wool setting.
