Hats and Mitts

I knit some accessories for my three guys in November/December. For my husband, I made the Botanic hat by Stephen West: I made it with Malabrigo Worsted (grey) and Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran (dark grey). The hat is ribbed and reversible:

My 16 year-old son got a Botanic Hat as well, in Malabrigo Rios in the Teal colorway and the darker grey is Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran:

         

My 19 year-old son got the Graham hat by Jennifer Adams (free pattern), knit in Berroco Blackstone Tweed Chunky, in grey:

I made my husband a pair of mitts, Maize by Tin Can Knits (free pattern), in Berroco Blackstone Tweed Chunky.  I knit this chunky weight yarn in two needle sizes down to make them warm and dense:

And, so as not to leave myself out, I made some Toasty mitts by Leslie Friend (free pattern) in Illimani Yarn Silky Baby Llama in light grey:

First time using baby llama yarn and it is so soft and luxurious. It was an impulse buy as was discounted for my LYS closing sale.
