Aidan's Hat and Mitt Set


Pattern:Yankee Knitter Hats and Mittens by Melinda Goodfellow

Yarn:Plymouth Encore, color 1444, and scraps of Artyarns Supermerino from various projects

Needles: US6 straight and circulars

Size: Toddler

Modifications:Stranded colorwork superimposed onto pattern alternating the blue and green with the brown on alternate rows, hat worked in the round not on straight needles.

Comments:I had just finished the Mittsicles samples, made a hat and mitten set for the kid in that, and thought "What am I going to do with this Encore Girl got and did not use? I wonder if there is enough to make a hat for Aidan..." A few hours later we had a hat and mitten set. Fun, fast, simple, and the boy loves them.
