Happy Malabrigo March Sale!

No coupon needed the price of the pattern has been adjusted.

Sale ends April 7th 2020

This set is named for Surprise Baby Blanket because it uses the same stitch pattern. I used it again because it is very easy to learn and there are no cables to slow you down!

The hat pattern includes several versions in various yarn weights. The cowl can be made from a turtleneck size to a generously sized infinity scarf.

The pattern is for both the hat and cowl.
