This matching hat and cowl use the same simple stitch pattern - only knit and purl stitches - to make a big colourful impact. Both are worked flat then seamed, and the hat is finished with a bright pompom.

This pattern features in Issue 2 of Your Crochet & Knitting, which is on sale from 16th August in supermarkets, newsagents and craft stores across the UK. Find your nearest UK stockist here. Copies can also be ordered from MoreMags.
