This ‘flip side’ set is appropriately named since they are basically worn inside out. Both the hat and the gloves use a knit stitch instead of a purl stitch and are flipped inside out at the end.

I included written instructions for a tubular cast on and cast off for the gloves. I think it gives the gloves a much nicer look and a comfier finish. It is not a requirement, however, so feel free to use your own preferred method.

Finished Measurements:
Hat: 8.5” from top to base of brim (not including pom pom), 18” circumference
Gloves: 4” across hand, 8” from base of cuff to finger opening, 1” from inside of thumb to end
