Inspired by polka dots and high fur collars, both popular in the 30s, this set will keep you cozy in style.

These fingerless mitts are quick to knit, and feature a fun textured stitch. They are knit from a worsted weight yarn and are great for showing off multicolored yarns.

Note that this pattern contains instructions for both the cowl and the matching fingerless mitts. You will need 2 skeins of worsted weight yarn to knit both the cowl and the mitts.
