A great quick gifty knit :)

This project keeps everybody warm and toasty. It’s equally perfect for boys & girls, men & women at any age. It is worked from the bottom up, initially in the round and subsequently back and forth with just the tiniest bit of seaming to finish it up. Trim is picked up and knit. Hood is designed to be nice and roomy, with space to grow or for a big hair day and it is a perfect quick knit thanks to the larger gauge. Pattern is suitable for adventurous beginning knitters ready to practice basic increasing and decreasing and simple finishing techniques. Warmest Mittens pattern is sold separately.
