Dicotyledon Bundle (2 Patterns)
Early on in spring, reminding us that warmer days are on their way, the first leaves of seedlings emerge from the soil, reaching for the sun. Those duos of bold, delicate leaves are called dicotyledons (or dicots). This spring moment inspired the coordinating set of Dicotyledon Hat and Mitts. Twisted rib contrasts with the textured dip stitches of Borderie Anglaise to create a striking hat that keeps the early spring chill at bay. Both hat and mitts can be made from a single 100g skein of DK weight yarn.
