Enjoy the far north where polar bears live. This hat and mitten set is warm and comfy and is a quiet reminder to care for our environment.

The pattern is written as one size but has lots of stretch. As written, the hat is around 21 inches in circumference and 9 inches long. This hat was knit using Aran weight yarn. If you use another weight wool (eg. worsted) please check your gauge as it will change the size of the hat. The brim folds over for extra warmth. The mittens are 7 inches in circumference and 9.5 inches long.

To make both the hat and mittens, you will need less than one skein for the main colour and much less for the contrast colours. It is knit using stranded knitting but you will only ever use two colours at a time.

It is a quick knit and can be completed in just a few days.

The pattern has not been test knit. If you have any questions, suggestions or feedback, please let me know. carolasheartstrings@gmail.com or at my Ravelry username: Cbaker259
