Please note: Due to shipping costs all kits sent internationally will be packaged in organza bags rather than boxes to keep the prices down. (This does not affect the cost of the kit as the bags and boxes are similarly priced)

Oh my friend Alitzah Grant is a clever bean!

Her gorgeous B'Twixt cowl first came to life when I asked if she could design a crochet cowl pattern for my Twixmas 2020 gift box using 4ply and lace weight yarn - and the result was delightful! 

We then discussed how lovely it would look and how smooshy and warm it would feel if it was worked in aran weight yarn - and oh how lovely it is! So then I challenged Alitzah to turn the design into a slouchy hat. We wanted it to be fairly simple and without complex decreases so it is worked straight then drawn up at the crown with a length of crochet chain tied in a pretty bow. 

Because the hat and cowl have each been designed to work with just 1 x 100g ball of aran it is important to check your gauge. I am a loose crocheter so I didn't have enough yarn using a 4.5mm hook to work all 23 rounds of my hat so I would need to go down to a 4mm hook. 

If you are unsure I recommend that you make the hat first, just in case you need to borrow a little extra yarn from the second ball as the cowl will work just as well with fewer rows. 

This kit contains:

• 2 x 100g balls of Adriafil New Zealand aran 75/25 wool/acrylic machine washable Aran
• Printed full colour pattern booklet
• hand made lobster clasp stitch marker
