A cute cowl and mitts set with flirty kick pleats, “plaid” textured patterning, and mock tab closures to knit in three youth and adult sizes (S/M/L). Because these pieces work up quickly in the round using a clever combination of knits and purls, they make terrific traveling projects. The mitts have a sculpted thumb gusset to provide a snug fit.
