The set consists of a beanie and a pair of fingerless gloves.
Both items are tested. For list of testers, read at the bottom of these notes.

The Token of love beanie, and/or the fingerless mittens are just perfect for gifting. Or maybe, for spoiling yourself:)
Worked in Aran, or worsted weight yarn, they knit up fast.
And the lace makes them so pretty and rewarding.
The work of my testers made me fell in love with the pattern<3

The beanie
The beanie is worked bottom-up and in-the-round.
Size: the beanie is one-size. The circumference (above the brim) = 48 cm/18.75”. The height of the brim = 14 cm/5.5”. The height, from the brim to the top of the crown = 17 cm/6.75”. Total height, from cast-on to the top of the crown = 31 cm/12.25”.
Materials
Yarn: I recommend an Aran, or worsted weight yarn that knits up to gauge. I used Håndvärksgarn from Hjelholts Uldspinderi, in the colour hvid, to work my beanie and gloves. This Aran weight yarn comes in skeins of 100 gr/3.53 oz and 200 m/216 yards.
Of this specific yarn you will need 160 m/175 yards. Needles: a circular needle, 40 cm/16” long, size 3.5 mm/US4 to work the brim. A circular needle, 40 cm/16” long, size 4 mm/US6 to work the main-body of the hat. A set of DPNS, size 4 mm/US6 to shape the crown of the hat.
Gauge 20 sts and 28 rounds in stockinette sts, as well as the lace-pattern = 10 x 10 cm/4 x 4”.

The fingerless gloves
The gloves are worked bottom-up and in-the-round.
Sizes: There are 2 sizes to choose from, circumference 19/21 cm = 7.5/8.25”.

A set of 4 DPNS (or a circular needle, if working the magic loop), size 4 mm/US6 to work the back and palm of hand and thumbs. Notions: 2 removable stitch-markers. Waste-yarn.
