Wild Rose – The Beanie

Styling

Yarn feel
The combination of alpaca, mohair and metallic thread gives Wild Rose a character all of its own. The alpaca creates weight and warmth, the mohair gives a soft veil around the stitches, while the gold thread adds an exclusive play of light that makes the hat beautiful in daylight and in evening light alike.
Cosy Cues
Want a quieter look? Swap the gold thread for a tone-on-tone carry-along thread. If you want to bring out the luxurious feel, finish with a detachable faux fur pompom or a small gold button as a detail.
