It's our FREE Pattern of the Week!
Each Friday our featured pattern will update with our latest selection — patterns can be knit or crocheted.
This week's FREE PATTERN:
The Messenger Hat and Mitts will snuggle you in from the cold in style.
Use a skein of “Mad Hatter” yarn to knit a fitted or slouchy hat with a simple turned brim. Matching fingerless mitts keep the chill at bay or insulate your hands around your steaming cup of tea. This version of the Messenger Hat & Mitts pattern has been modified for one skein!
