These pretty colourwork mitts and hat are knitted in a luxurious wool-cashmere yarn
CAROL MELDRUM
Asphodel

A BEAUTIFULLY organic-looking stranded colourwork pattern decorates this hat and matching mitts set, designed for us by Carol Meldrum. The accessories feel extra-special, thanks to the use of a luxurious blend of BFL wool and cashmere yarn from KC Collection. Carol's mitts feature buttoned cuffs, afterthought thumbs and a picot cast-off edging, while the hat is finished with a pompom.
