Quick cabled slouchy hat, ready for Christmas. Used merino lace and kid silk, one strand each, high contrast colours and it worked out a nice muted shade. I’ll play around with other colour combinations. Despite being less than 25g in weight, it’s incredibly warm and so soft.
The merino seems to soften the feel of the mohair. The Austermann Kid Silk is the softest I have used but combined with the merino lace it’s joyous.
The actual finished colour is closest on the modelled shots with our poly head Victoria, she’s very patient and loves hats.
Yarn weight Lace / 2 ply held double
Gauge 20 stitches and 28 rows = 10 cm in lace and cable pattern with larger needles
Needle size US 2½ - 3.0 mm, US 8 - 5.0 mm
Yardage 375 - 500 yards (343 - 457 m)
Sizes available Adult small, medium/large
