Pyrite Hat n Mitts are a glorious accompaniment to the cardigan of the same name, (coming soon!) with the same easy and enjoyable Rib & Cable pattern, simple, squishy and satisfying. The hat is a short cap type affair with a Cable & Rib trim on a smaller needle size to make sure it stays snug over those ears. Along with the mittens, choose between fingerless, or a full mitt, again with a snug wrist and then enough space to move those fingers
