Through the Loops!: Laurie's Beret and Mittens

With their simple honeycomb stitch pattern Laurie's Beret and Mittens are a wonderful way to showcase beautiful yarn. I've worked them in Knit Picks City Tweed HW as you see in the photo above, or as seen below in the subtle semi solid shades of Farmhouse Yarns Andy's Merino.

Using Aran weight yarn they knit up quickly and are perfect for holiday gifts, or a treat for yourself to wear with your new winter coat.

The patterns are sold individually or as a set.
