Matching Mitts and Cowl

GENERAL INFORMATION
This hat is worked in the round using two contrasting colours of yarn. The simple stitch pattern lends a texture and bounce to the hat. The colours and bubbly nature of the pattern remind me of Pyrite, but of course the hat is much softer! If you have not worked the bubble stitch before there is a photo tutorial and a link to a video to show you how. The hat is easily adjusted. The circumference can be adjusted by adding or removing multiples of 4 sts. The height can be adjusted by working more or fewer repeats of Rounds 1-6 in the Main Hat Section.

MATERIALS
Yarn:
Recommended yarn: Malabrigo Rios worsted weight yarn 192 m / 210yds / 100g.
MC: Worsted weight yarn see table below: Shown in Malabrigo Rios 192 m / 210 yds / 100 g colour Frank Ochre.
CC: Worsted weight yarn see table below: Shown in Malabrigo Rios 192 m / 210 yds / 100 g colour Niebla.

Yarn choice: It is important to have a good contrast (light vs dark in very different colours) between the MC and CC. Resist the temptation to buy two yarns that complement each other because they share colours in common as the pattern will be quickly lost.

You can use DPN’s or a circular needle 40 cm / 16 inches long.
4.0 mm (US 6) needle(s) (main needle) or size required to obtain gauge in pattern.
3.5 mm (US 4) needle(s) or 0.5 mm smaller than main needle for the ribbing.
