Hampton beanie and mitts
Introducing our delightful and practical knitting pattern for a cozy beanie and matching long arm-warmer/mitts, perfect for using up your leftover DK yarn after creating the stylish Hampton jacket (see separate listing for details). This easy-to-knit set features a charming horizontal rib stitch that adds texture and warmth, making it an excellent choice for knitters of all skill levels. Both pieces are beautifully modeled alongside the jacket in the accompanying photos, showcasing how they create a lovely matching accessory set. However, they can also be crafted individually for anyone looking to add stylish yet functional pieces to their winter wardrobe, using any DK yarn you have on hand.
This hat and mitts pattern comes in two customizable sizes to ensure the perfect fit: Size Medium, designed to fit head circumferences of 53-58.5 cm (21-23 inches), and Size Large for head sizes of 56-61 cm (22-24 inches). For the arm warmers, the size Medium fits hands measuring 19 cm (7 ½ inches), while Size Large accommodates hands measuring 20.5 cm (8 inches). This thoughtful sizing allows you to create a flattering fit for anyone in your family, making it a versatile gift option for birthdays, holidays, or just because!
Both pieces are knitted using West Yorkshire Spinners Fleece DK weight yarn, crafted from 100% British wool for warmth and comfort. Each 100g hank offers a generous 225m (246 yards) of yarn, and we recommend the lovely Shade: Berry (1036) for a touch of vibrant color. Keep in mind that the beanie requires approximately 70g for Size Medium and 75g for Size Large, while the mitts (a pair) require 58g for Size Medium and 68g for Size Large. This means you can easily customize your project according to your available yarn and preferences.
