I have a new pattern ready to be test knitted and for use as a blog tutorial. If you are interested in test knitting this pattern, providing feedback on the pattern, and providing feedback on the blog tutorial, let me know in the comments below.
The hat is beaded and cabled, and constructed with two yarns held together. Super soft royal baby alpaca and a lace weight mohair give each stitch extra loft and warmth. Beads adorn the tops and bottoms of each of the broken cables in the pattern.
Techniques highlighted in the tutorial will be cables and beading.
You can purchase the alpaca yarn (~200 yards) through der Bauernhof Farms and the lace weight mohair (~230 yards) through your favorite local yarn shop or at Webs (Southampton Yarn).

It is beautiful! Would it be possible to use something other than brown? I am willing to try if you are willing to let me.
