These fingerless mittens are worked flat to the top rib section and then joined to work in the round for seamless comfort. This construction makes for easy stripes, and the seam has been carefully placed to ensure that the mitts are comfortable to wear and beautiful to look at.
The pattern is offered in three sizes and the pretty colour palette means that the combination options are endless. Surprisingly warm to wear, the mittens are pretty yet practical - a perfect project for beginner knitters who want to learn new techniques on a project of a manageable scale.
