Blue baby alpaca hat for her baby blues
I bought this as a gift for my wife. She requested an alpaca hat - in blue - to match a blue coat she had. I doubted if one was available, but went looking. I needed dimension specs, as she needs something fairly large. Does she like it?: "I love my beautiful new hat! The denim color is rich, and the baby alpaca fibers are so soft -- those who find other wool itchy enjoy relief with alpaca. The hat's design adds to its beauty, with panels of one stitch alternating with bands of another stitch -- this helps create comfortable grip that keeps the masterful stitching aligned when the hat is worn. Also, the hat has no seam, which adds to the comfort and appearance. I love the little floral finish, too, and appreciate that the larger size is available (for those of us outside the "one size fits all" zone). This hat evokes warmth: warm clothing in cold weather, warm regard for the artist, and warm feelings for the giver, who searched until he found the perfect hat. Sincerely, Susan"

Hat
I spent a lot of time deliberating over the color and selected the Ivory leaves beret. Goes with anything (including the black alpaca ruana cape I purchased) Keeps my head warm in the cold weather. Useful for the bad hair days as well. I worried that it might not fit as I usually have trouble with size. My head measures 24" circumference at above eyebrows. I can wear pulled over forehead or like a Parisian tilted to one side without an issue. It is light in weight and has a very pretty pattern.
