Last minute bulky winter set!

Winter will be over soon, but it's not too late to make winter-wear! I wanted to make a bulky winter item like a hat, but then had a hard time finding patterns for matching mittens and a scarf that used the same yarn. So here are the patterns for a super easy and fast winter set.
