The True Queen Hat and Mitts by Fyberspates

Craft: Knitting

This pattern is available on Ravelry.

This had was inspired by listening to the life of Katherin of Aragon, hence the name The True Queen.

This requires two skeins of Vivacious dk in contrasting colours to see the diamonds clearly.

I suggest using the opposite colours for the mittens as for the hat to make sure you have enough yarn. So for example if the hat uses Smokey Joe for the Diamonds and Maple Syrup for the background, switch this to Maple Syrup for the diamonds and Smokey Joe for the background for the mittens.
