This is a lovely hat and gauntlet set with a subtle cable design, embellished with contrasting glass beads. Beads are attached using a small steel crochet hook (size 11/12 or 13/14) which are knitted on as you go. You will need size 6/0 glass beads: 198 for the hat; 48 for the gauntlets. If you do not wish to add beads, simply knit that stitch. Pattern includes complete instructions for attaching beads and working chart. This is a great pattern to knit for yourself and would make a wonderful gift set for family and friends.
