SCARF AND MITTS SET

Add snuggle factor to your scarf and mitt set with Hayley Hall’s toasty twosome

-

You’ll be a loop stitch fan after you’ve made up these mitts, and then an expert after hooking the scarf! Make the full trio in a weekend to wow your friends come Monday.

NOTES

Mitts are worked from the Cuff up. The Cuff is worked in rows and seamed together. The Main Body of the Mitt is worked up from the Cuff in rounds.

Scarf is made in 2 pieces which are joined together at the end.

Work loop stitches on the WS so the loops sit on the RS of your work.
