Aspen Fair Isle Mitts
If you purchase 3 patterns from my Ravelry Store at the same time (add them all to your cart before you check out), the least expensive one will be free.
These little mitts showcase a versatile fair isle border pattern, balanced with zig-zag peeries either side, and highlighted with a bright flower motif at the top. The pattern calls for small amounts of fingering weight yarns suitable for stranded colourwork.
The mitts are worked bottom up in the round with thumb gussets, and feature border/peerie patterns on the front of the hand with a complementary filler stitch pattern on the palm side. There are charts for left and right hand mitts.
