a 'new' alpaca hat



Another version of our free shop pattern.  This time using Rowan Alpaca Classic, a mix of cotton and alpaca.

Original version in Rico Luxury Alpaca

For the Rowan hat you need to hold two strands together.  Although I've done ours in one colour, you could use different colours to create a marled appearance.

And if you're looking for matching mitts, try our free Simple DK Mitts pattern.

Simple DK Mitts, easy to modify.  One ball of Rowan Alpaca Classic for one pair

Both patterns are available in the shop as well as the yarn of course.

And coming soon... a new shop sample... Love Note by Tin Can Knits in Rowan Alpaca Classic

work in progress!

Alpaca Classic Shawl



This stunning shawl is knitted in the new Rowan Alpaca Classic, a lightweight blend of Alpaca and Cotton.  You can see the shades we have here plus turquoise and the bright pink used in the shawl.

It's a free pattern, available in the shop.  It's based on our laceweight and DK shawl and has a long shallow crescent shape - scarf like!



It's incredibly lightweight and floaty and versatile...
