Whitby Hat and Mittens

 I am so happy that my recent Whitby Scarf has been so well received!  And, of course I wanted to add a matching Hat and Mittens. 

Before I even got the stitches cast on to my needles - a member of my facebook group had already knitted some up!  Great minds :)  

Thank you Jenny Kriel for sharing your Fingerless Handwarmers - they look great!
