NOTES
• For techniques you don’t know, please visit our online knitting glossary at www.interweave.com/interweave-knitting-glossary.

• The hat is worked in the round from the bottom up, beginning with a doubled hem. The mittens are worked in the round from ribbed cuff to tip.

• The charts are worked using the stranded method. Always pick up the background color from over the pattern color and pick up the pattern color from under the background color. Keep floats loose. Where a float extends over five or more stitches, tack stranded yarn on the wrong side of the work.

• The yarn quantities listed will make both the hat and the pair of mittens. To make just the hat or the mittens, only one skein of MC is required.
