Kids move fast and this hat and mitt set is meant just for them. The allover ribbed texture means there is plenty of stretch, so the hat will stay put while they play, and the mitts will be snug on their wrists and hands. And the integrated cable adds interest. The mitts are designed so that both hands are knit the same, which means there’s no need to worry about which hand is the ‘right’ one. Knitting in a tight gauge in Valley Yarns Valley Superwash DK gives this set extra durability for long lasting wear.
