Material: Approx. 100 m/110 yards of "super bulky" quality alpaca. For substitution, I recommend choosing a main material with structure, such as wool.

Needles: 6.5 mm/US10.5 double-pointed needles or equivalent to achieve the correct gauge.

Gauge 10 x 10 cm or 4 x 4 in: 15 stitches x 18 rows.

Finished sizes: 19 cm/7.5 in high and 50 cm/19.7 in in head circumference (2 cm/0.8 in ease).

The Instructions For The Model

Cast on 72 stitches with 6.5 mm/US10.5 double-pointed needles.

Place a marker and join in the round, ensuring the stitches are not twisted.

Continue in 1x1 ribbing for 15 rounds or 8 cm/3.1 in.

Switch to stockinette stitch for 18 rounds or 10 cm/4 in.

On the next round, place 4 markers spaced 18 stitches apart (make sure to use a different marker to indicate the beginning of the round).

Decrease one stitch after (slip one stitch, knit the next, and pass the slipped stitch over) and one stitch before (knit two stitches together) each of the 4 markers = -8 stitches, leaving a total of 64 stitches or 16 stitches between each marker.

Knit one round in stockinette stitch.*

Repeat from * to * a total of 6 times = 24 stitches or 6 stitches between each marker.

On the final round, knit together the 3 stitches after (slip one stitch, knit the next 2 stitches together, and pass the slipped stitch over) and the 3 stitches before (knit three stitches together) each marker = 8 stitches or 2 stitches between each marker.

Cut the yarn, leaving about 20 cm/8 in, and thread it through the remaining 8 stitches. Pull tight.

Weave in the ends and block.

And there you have it, your Twin hat is finished! Now, all that's left is to test it out in real-life situations!
