About The Design:
I first used this Fair Isle pattern for a cell phone cover, then immediately planned these women’s mittens and hat. Most of the color changes are easy to work, only the center motif changes colors frequently.


The roomy mittens are worked Norwegian-style with a back of hand pattern, palm pattern, and 3-st stripes running up each side. You can knit the hat first, to get familiar with the patterning, as its only shaping is at the crown. I left the hat pompom-less to show off the flowers circling the top, in between the crown shaping stitches.


This set would make a special gift!
