The North Star Hat has enough texture, because of this yarn, to show the star row. Works up fast with just one ball of Queensland Cairns yarn. Any worsted-weight yarn that shows off texture stitches would be great for this hat project. The North Star Hat uses the Tunisian simple stitch throughout. Cairns yarn is beautifully colored and has a chain strand showing off its colors even more. This yarn is a cotton blend, perfect for those who prefer no wool.
