Mens Checkers Fair Isle Beanie Hat Viking Hand Knit Alpaca Wool Nordic Blue Gray. Condition is "New." Ships USPS First Class.

Men’s knitted hat "Checkers" with multi-colored Nordic pattern. The piece is worked in DROPS Lima.

This nordic hat is made after a checkers pattern using the Lima yarn, an alpaca and sheep wool mix. DROPS Lima is a 4 strands sport yarn. The fibers are untreated, which means that they are only washed and not exposed to any chemical treatment prior to the dyeing. This highlights the fibers’ natural properties, while it provides also a better shape and texture quality.

Lima can be used with advantage for outdoor garments that are usually knitted tight for good shape stability. This hard wearing and durable wool quality is combined with the lovely and comfortable properties that the alpaca is known for. A sport yarn with a little bit more luxury!

DROPS Lima contains mixed colors, this means the wool is manufactured by carding the colors together before spinning, which gives it a mixed effect.

One size: Fits the average men's head (57/59 cm / 22oe''/23 1/4'').
