HAT:
Worked in the round on circular needle.
Cast on 104-112 sts on circular needle size 2.5 mm with BabyAlpaca Silk. K 1 round, then work rib (= K 2/P 2). When piece measures 4-5 cm, work next round as last round in diagram A.1 = 117-126 sts on needle. Switch to circular needle size 3 mm and work PATTERN according to diagram A.2 until piece measures 22-23 cm. Work next round as follows: * K 2, P 2 tog, slip 1 st as if to K, K 2 tog, psso, P the next 2 tog *, repeat from *-* the entire round = 65-70 sts remain on needle (switch to double pointed needles when needed). * Work 2 cm in stocking st, K all sts tog 2 by 2 *, repeat from *-* 1 more time = 17-18 sts remain on needle. Cut the thread and pull it through the remaining sts, tighten tog and fasten.

SCARF:
The scarf consist of 2 equal parts that are sewn together in the middle at the end.
Cast on 258 sts on needle size 3 mm with BabyAlpaca Silk. P 1 row from WS. Then work next row as follows from RS: 4 edge sts in GARTER ST - see explanation above - * K 8, P 3 *, repeat from *-* until 12 sts remain and finish with K 8 and 4 edge sts in GARTER ST. Continue rib like this with 4 edge sts in garter st in each side until piece measures 3 cm. On next row from RS dec 1 st on each side of every K-section by working all K 8 sts as follows (P 3 as before): Slip 1 st as if to K, K 1, psso, K until 2 sts remain, K 2 tog.
Repeat dec on every row from RS 2 more times = 120 sts (all K 8 sts are now dec to K 2). Continue with K over K and P over P. AT THE SAME TIME on next row from RS dec all 3 P sts to 2 P sts (P tog the first 2 sts) = 98 sts. On next row from RS inc as shown on last row in diagram A.1 = 109 sts. Then work PATTERN according to diagram A.2 - beg from WS as follows: 4 edge sts as before, P 2, work A.2 until 4 sts remain and finish with 4 edge sts as before. When piece measures approx. 22 cm – adjust after 1st or 5th row in diagram – work next row as follows from RS: 4 edge sts as before, work A.3 one time, then work A.4 until 15 sts remain on row, finish with A.5 and then 4 edge sts as before = 77 sts remain on needle. Then work A.6 with 4 edge sts in each side as before until piece measures approx. 80 cm – adjust so that next row is from RS. K 1 row while AT THE SAME TIME dec 5 sts evenly = 72 sts on needle.
