Perfect for unpredictable transition seasons, this slouchy stocking hat with matching fingerless mitts knits up in two sizes (S/L) with a twist—unexpected lacy openwork to lighten the mood in blustery weather. The mitts have a fitted thumb gusset while the hat brim is reversible and can be doubled back if desired. For maximum slouch, choose a very soft yarn.
