This pattern is bound to be a favorite for many. All it takes is one skein of Red Heart Soft and a couple of hours to whip up any of the 5 (YES - 5!) styles included in this pattern. This pattern includes a slouch hat, headband, cowl, mittens and fingerless mitts. Definately a great value!
It is one of those patterns that you can pick up in the middle and get right to it - no counting of rows necessary. A super easy beginner pattern that gives a wonderful and useful result. One of my design goals is to only make patterns that I myself really want to make and use for myself or my loved ones - good “basics” in any wardrobe. I love this set and can’t wait to make them in many variations. This stitch is so easy but it might be tough for even crochet enthusiasts to see what stitch it is! It is in fact the wrong side of a common stitch - the sc in blo - which also makes these reversible. All styles are made in the round with no sewing or joining. Just simple measurements and decreases. Simple and fabulous set!

Do you have a friend who wants to learn to crochet? Wouldn’t this make a great gift - 1 skein of Red Heart Soft and a copy of this pattern and they will be crocheters in no time! :-)
