cozy cocoons of wool sound good about now? i know it’s below 20° at my house tonight. brr.
but i was warm in these mitts with a hat made the same while standing in the cold to show them to the camera. quick to knit and snuggly to wear . . . it’s gonna be hard to give these away.

shown here in briar rose fourth of july in a dark brown multi colorway that has a little of everything.

What a wonderful set! Thank you for helping me nail down my last knitted Christmas gift. You’re an angel.
Love it Anne! How about some matching socks??? I’m in the throws of Christmas knitting like a lot of us, this will be a good one to throw in the mix.
Great hat and mitt set!They look wonderfully warm.
I love both the hat and the mitts. But, oh, that yarn! Pretty enough to eat! (And I’m not a moth!)
Those came out great!
A very handsome knit! Great marriage of yarn and stitch pattern.
LOVE the new set! You sure make some awesome patterns…if only I could knit faster – or didn’t need sleep!!
Perfect timing! I was hoping you’d release this pattern in time for some last minute Christmas knitting. Hooray!
These are already added to my Ravelry favorites !
Great pattern Anne !
lacunae is (are ?) lovely. I’m really hoping for the triangulated mittens and hat you showed back on Dec. 2. I love, love, love that pattern and would knit it in a hat, mittens, fingerless mitts, and socks.
Yea! I’m buying the pattern and making them for my daughter. Thanks Anne.
love that fourth photo of you up close. (proof positive that women with short hair can look beautiful in a cap)
What a fabulous set!
I am so psyched about these – especially because I happen to have a skein of BR 4th of July in stash (courtesy Jocelyn!). I will be ordering the pattern soon!
I love this set! I hope I get to knit it in time!
They look great! I love that colorway
beautiful sets, i have to go shopping, but i am still waiting for more, but i really do not know if i can wait to buy both together? you know what i am waiting for……
i can not wear hats, but i have 2 daughters…..
LOVE both the hat and the mitts. And that yarn brings out your eye color really beautifully!
The hat and mitts are great! You look so cute!! Thanks for another great pattern.
Great pics of the hat and mitts,but even better in person! What I am noticing is the beautiful new purple winter coat.
Hmm – not sure about the idea of cocoons. I have a slight carpet beetle issue at the moment so I’m feeling pretty anti-cocoon!
The hat and mitts look fabulous though and that streak of brown in the variegation really matches your eyes. Why oh why isn’t Briar Rose readily available in the UK (sigh).
Thanks so much, I love this pattern.
Love the mitts and hat. Oh and the purple jacket is tres chic.
Anne!!! Now how cute do YOU look in that first picture???? You look positively radiant and joyful. Good grief. That Christmas tree must really be working its magic. Okay, so, I’m thinking it’s about a month now??? Can you believe it??? Tickets?
Anne- Why are you showing weak people like us gorgeous yarn and patterns?
What a lovely set!
Thank you, Anne!
I love these. They look very cosy. Love your book too…
