Fluffy Hat and Hand Muff
When I was a little girl I had the most adorable, fluffy, luxurious bonnet and hand muff ever! This set was inspired by my childhood memory. It’s a quick and easy set to make up. The fur yarn can be a little tricky to work with and I find feeling each stitch works best as it is difficult to see the stitches. Of course you can use any type of comparable weight yarn you like. This is a fun one to test different novelty yarns with too!
I’ve sized it for younger and older girls, but it isn’t difficult to adjust to any size you like by adding length and width. Have fun!

To Join: With outside facing you pull the inside lining through the fur side with ends together so that the lining is on the inside of the muff.
