A Colour Work Hat & Mitten Set // Design By Deborah Newton

Soft contrast for delicate colourwork, this hat and mitten set is both elegant and ethereal. Knitters will love the simple stranded colour pattern, worked quickly in a DK-weight yarn, and delight in the final project that is a dream for year-round wear.

  • yarn: 3 skeins SweetGeorgia Mohair Silk DK, 2 in Trinket (MC) and 1 in Slate (CC) (218 yd / 200 m per 3.5 oz / 100 g skein; 90% easy-care merino, 5% super kid mohair, 5% silk)
  • needles: Size 6 US / 4 mm needles
    Size 7 US / 4.5 mm needles
    Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain correct gauge.
  • gauge: 20 sts and 22 rnds = 4" / 10 cm in Dittany Colour pattern using larger needles, after blocking
    For accurate sizing, always take time to check finished gauge.
  • finished measurements: Hat:
    Circumference above ribbing: 20” / 51 cm
    Length to tip of crown: 9 ½“ / 24 cm
    Mittens:
    Circumference of hand above thumb: 8” / 20.5 cm
    Length from ribbing edge to top: 9 ¾” / 25 cm

Note: The Trinket colourway is no longer available, however we suggest taking a look at Twilight or Nightcall as an alternative.

Beware the chart

I love this pattern, overall it’s fun and clear. HOWEVER there is a serious mistake in both the chart and the written instructions that has the main colour and contrast colour reversed. If you are looking for a dark background and light design be sure to reverse MC and CC. Sweet Georgia acknowledged this in a written reply to an email and I hope that they will make every effort to correct PDF and flag it under ERRATA on their site asap. As the staff member said, it will look fine if you follow as written but if you are hoping that it will be as pictured be mindful of this issue. For this reason I marked it down to 3 stars
