This pattern uses the wattle stitch, a very simple combination of single crochet, a chain, and a double crochet, but visually and texturally interesting. In order to keep the zig zag of this stitch, both the headband and the gloves are worked in rows, and both sides are stitched together afterward (with a gap in the stitching for the gloves), making this one easy enough for beginners, but it will be sure to impress your friends.
