MATERIALS

  • 2 (2, 2-3, 3) skeins of Purl Soho + Manos Del Uruguay’s Lovebird, 100% superwash merino wool. Each skein is approximately 75-85 yards/ 100-110 grams; approximately 105-115 (130-142, 165-180, 205-224) yards required. We used the colors Thistle, Papaya, and Strawberry Shortcake. (NOTE: Some colors may no longer be available.)

  • A set of US 11 (8 mm) double pointed needles
  • Jumbo stitch markers, including one unique

For Pom Pom (Optional)

  • 1 skein of Lovebird; approximately 35-38 (35-38, 50-55, 50-55) yards required.
  • Purl Soho’s Pom Pom Maker Set, Small + Large size (for Baby/Toddler and Kid sizes) or Extra Large + Jumbo size (for Adult Small and Adult Large sizes)

NOTE: Because Lovebird is hand spun in small batches, yardages may vary between skeins. Our yardage requirements err on the side of caution, so this hat may not require a third or fourth skein for larger sizes or pom poms. If you don’t end up needing the last skein, you can return unwound yarn for a refund within 30 days of purchase, or within 6 months, for store credit. Our Return Policy has all the details!
