These cute mittens utilize a simple chevron pattern of decreases and increases to create a waving stripes pattern. Although there are twice as many white rows as gray, the colors appear evenly balanced. The unequal stripes give a refined effect that would be equally elegant in other color combinations like peach with chocolate.

Yarn Requirements:
Manos del Uruguay Rittenhouse Merino 5-Ply - 1 skein each of Natural (color #514) and Nickel (color #531).
