ARTFULLY MISMATCHED COLLECTION

ALL MIXED UP

The playful patterns in these winter accessories don’t always match up, but they always look good together!

PICK ‘N’ MIX This chunky colourwork scarf alternates shades and patterns for a fun and funky effect. It’s just the thing to elevate your winter style!
COSY AND COOL The asymmetrical patterns in this quirky cardi are so cute! Plus, with its puffy bishop sleeves, thick ribbed edges and dense stitches, it’s a warm and comfortable option that you can wear all winter long!
FALL IN GLOVE No two handmade mittens are ever exactly the same, so why not embrace the difference? These two warm mitts have different colour and pattern placements, but they look like a perfect pair when worn together!
KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF By using the same patterns in opposing colours for each foot, you’ll end up with a fun set of not-so-odd socks! Make them for a friend who loves an unusual gift.
LEND AN EAR With a simple granny square and circle, you can create statement earrings that offer a surprise on each side. Just grab some yarn scraps from your stash and go!

NOTES

Scarf is worked in rows throughout. There is a Chart on page 87, which you should refer to. Each small square represents 1dc and each rectangle represents a tr3d (see Abbreviations). Read all RS rows from right to left and WS rows from left to right. Change colour at the end of every WS row. On the mosaic section, where a second colour appears in the row, skip the colour and make a ch for each skipped st plus 1; for example, if skipping 4 sts make a ch5. The first few rows of the Chart have been written out to guide you. You will need to split Denim and Burnt Orange into 2 balls: one for the mosaic sections and one for the blocks of colour on the left edge.

Row 1 (RS) Dc in second ch from hook and each ch across, turn. [38 sts]
