Welcome to the ultimate quick and cosy knit. The Rambling Rose Hat and Mitts feature an eye-catching textured design that will make your knitterly heart sing.

Elegant travelling twisted ribs are fun to work and give impressive results. Palms are worked in twisted rib for a perfect fit, and the stretchy design will accommodate a range of different sizes. Why not knit a longer hat brim that can be folded double, or make extra long mitts to stretch right up the arms?

The open spaces in the design show off tonal yarns beautifully. If you don’t have a delicious skein of aran weight on hand, then you can use DK weight held double, or fingering/sport weight held triple. So dive into your stash and cast on today!
