Cold Frame Hat & Mitts

The advantage of top-down hats and mittens is that they are so easy to try on as you go. This set uses the bulky-weight Crater Lake, which has a soft and smooth hand that shows off the stitches beautifully. Plus, the heavy yarn makes the knitting go oh so fast!

The hat and mittens together take two skeins of Color A and one of the B; each pieces uses roughly half that on its own.
