Lacy Bucket Hat and Summer Mitts – CROCHET

Here is a quick accessory set. Crocheted with fingering weight yarn makes for a light weight hat that is cool, even in late Spring.

While these pieces are made of wool, they breathe and keep you cool while looking stylish.

The circumference of the hand is measured around the palm just below the fingers. These mitts fit with a bit of negative ease. The measurements listed in the sizes are the hand measurements, not the mitts.
