The Valley Yarns Designer Series Moonlight Mitts have the trifecta knitters are looking for come gifting time—they’re cute, quick, and cozy! Make a pair for yourself and the knitworthy friends, family members, teachers, and more that you want to keep warm this winter! The construction of Moonlight Mitts is straightforward, knit seamlessly in the round from the cuff up to the fingers with waving lace on the back of the hand and thumb gussets for a great fit. Whately and Southampton yarn are held together throughout this project, giving the finished mitts the best of both yarns. Whately combines alpaca and organic Pima cotton into a chainette yarn with great drape and beautifully heathered colors. Southampton adds a luxurious feel and soft, fluffy halo with its mohair and silk blend. Have a blast picking out color pairings and let the Moonlight Mitt magic whip through your gift list! Stitch pattern is both charted and written out.
