Pattern, alpaca yarn and needles to make this lovely warm headband are sent with care instructions and alpaca story neatly packed in a tin.
Using our comprehensive instructions and fabulous 100% pure, British alpaca yarn, Diana will be a joy to make. It is a confidence building introduction to cables and with everything needed included within the tin. An easy to wrap gift set for yourself or a loved one.
Knitting is the most popular craft hobby in the UK. This wonderful pastime is being taken up by celebrities, youngsters, people from both sexes and all ethnicities.
The Purl Alpaca Designs products are exclusive, design-led and upmarket. Our fleece is sourced from local breeders (and our own herd); it is hand sorted and graded before being made into yarn by a specialist spinning mill. Only the best quality is used and we blend the natural fibres to create our wonderful colour range. We don’t dye the yarn. Environmentally aware; even our packaging is made from recycled materials.
Diana is a truely classic headband and is a great introduction to cable knitting. Not only a quick project to finish and good fun to knit, it is possible to make 2 Dianas from one kit - perhaps a great gift idea?
