This cozy hat and arm warmer set will keep you warm on those chilly evenings. The fingering weight yarn is held double for a fresh marled effect. Simple 2x2 Ribbing flows into faux cable twisted rib panels on the slightly slouchy hat, finished off with a pompom in both colors. The forearm length arm warmers are shaped, with a thumb gusset, for a perfect fit.
