Yarn update: Bernat’s Tizzy has just announced (3/23/15) a recall and discontinuation of this yarn (this is the white yarn in the photos). Red Heart has a yarn called Boutique Fizzle that is similar (color is Vanilla, not as white as the Tizzy). I will be looking for more alternatives so if anyone has any suggestions for an alternative yarn please contact me at gormleys@swbell.net. Thank you.

This is an 11 page pdf file with instructions to make this sweet matching set of a wide headband with a pretty trim and matching mitts. Four sizes are available from Toddler though Adult. The yarn used in the pattern is worsted weight and the trim is very soft super bulky baby yarn (super bulky 6) from Bernat. They are quick to work up and make a great last minute gift.

Skill Level: Beginner
There are photos and tips to complete this project easily.
