Airdrie Hat and Mitts Set<br />
Notes:<br />
This stylish hat and mitts set are knit in twisted rib stitch, which<br />
means they are quite stretchy. The mitts are knit flat, and the<br />
side is seamed with a hole for the thumb. The slouchy hat is knit<br />
in the round from the bottom up and finished with a pom pom<br />
for extra pizzazz. The screaming neon of Pucker will brighten up<br />
dull winter days, and Mighty Stitch means these pieces will go<br />
through the washer easily.<br />
For the hat, change to DPNs when there are too few sts to fit<br />
comfortably on the circular needle.<br />
