Stip is a set containing a hat, a pair of fingerless mitts and a cowl, all three with a very easy slip stitch pattern (choice between 2 stitch patterns). Only one color is worked per round to create the colorwork (no fiddly stranding with two threads). The mittens start with a tubular cast on - a super easy way with an always impeccable result is described in the pattern - and are worked seamlessly in the round.

The three stip patterns (hat, mitts and cowl) are bundled in one e-book: stip
