Freia - Oscilla Slipstitch Cowl and Hat Kit

These little kits contain the yarn-- 6  miniskeins-- and pattern for the Oscilla Sliptstitch Cowl and Hat-- yes, there is enough yarn to make both!  This is an easy to follow pattern, using only one yarn at a time. Slipstitch (also known as Mosaic Knitting) is when you only work certain stitches on each row or round, then with your second color, work the slipped stitches on the following round. This create a fairisle look without having to worry about tension issues, while still creating a warm and lofty piece. This is suitable for any advanced beginner and up, involving knits, purls and slip stitches with K2tog and Central Double Decreases (explained in pattern) in the hat.
