Cowichan-Inspired Hats and Mittens
Discover the delightful charm of these hats and mittens, inspired by the iconic Cowichan sweaters of Vancouver Island, Canada. Each size offers a unique set of motifs, ensuring that the hats and mittens perfectly match in design. Additionally, we provide a matching scarf pattern available in 4 sizes, allowing for a coordinated look that’s perfect for the whole family. The patterns are crafted using the technique of stranded knitting, making them not only beautiful but also a fantastic project for knitters looking to enhance their skills.
The sizes available cater to a wide range, including Small for ages 4 to small adult, Medium for ages 8 to small adult, Large for medium to large adults, and Extra-Large for large adults. No matter who you’re knitting for, there’s a perfect fit!
To create the complete hat and mittens set, you will need 3 colors of Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Bulky yarn, specifically: 1 skein each of Creme and Sable, and 1 (2, 2, 2) skeins of Sandy Heather based on the size. For the mittens alone, just 1 skein of each of the 3 colors is necessary, while the hat will require 1 skein of both Creme and Sable and 1 (1, 1, 2) skein(s) of Sandy Heather, depending on the size you choose.
With our easy-to-follow knitting patterns, you can create cozy, stylish accessories that capture the spirit of traditional Cowichan craftsmanship. Perfect for winter wear, these hats and mittens also make thoughtful gifts for friends and family. Start your knitting adventure today and enjoy the warmth and beauty of handmade items!
