This mitt and hat set is perfect for changing seasons or wearing indoors in chilly offices. The ribbing makes a hat that rests securely but lightly, while the mitts are fitted with a gusset. Color is used differently in each piece, creating a set that coordinates without matching. It is easy to mix, match, and customize.

The mitts are close fitting with a gusset for thumb movement. The hat can be worn with a fashionable slouch, as shown, or fitted with a folded brim.

The ribbing provides great flexibility in sizing - the medium size shown fits even young children as a very slouchy hat, and larger heads (around 22”) as a fitted beanie.
