This duo of fingerless mitts and a hat are ideal for gifting – to someone else or yourself. Sparkling beads in a frosty design make these knits extra special but if you are after a really quick knit just omit the beads. Soft merino and mohair are combined to create a luxurious feel that will keep you warm and stylish at the same time.

This pattern includes both the hat and the mitts for the price of a cup of coffee!
