Mütze is German for hat, but in some Swiss German dialects, a Mutzi is a kiss. Rows of kisses embellish this design, which blends two colours of yarn in deceptively simple slipped-stitch patterning.

Two skeins of worsted yarn will give you a generously slouchy hat with enough left over for matching mitts – make them for yourself or for whoever you like to kiss! Instructions include a full range of sizes, plus tips on adjusting for a beanie fit (as shown in the child’s sample).

Thanks to Kate Atherley for tech editing, and to my very helpful testers.
