The mittens are worked in the round from the cuff up, beginning with an i-cord cast-on. The hat is worked in the round from the bottom up, beginning with a tubular cast on for a stretchy brim. The cowl/scarf is worked in the round in three lengths, beginning with a provisional cast-on. The beginning and end of the two shorter lengths are joined to create an infinity scarf. Each end of the longest length is grafted to itself to create a long scarf. The color patterns are presented in chart form only.
