How about a touch of ‘really pretty’ peeking out from your coat sleeve? BARN SWALLOW feminine fingerless mitts are just the thing! They’re quick to knit with just enough excitement to keep a knitter from getting bored, yet much easier than they look. They’re a great stashbuster and they make great gifts, too! You’ll want to make them in every color. Bonus? They match the Barn Swallow Socks ;)

Mitts are worked in the round from the cuff upward using your preferred method of working in the round.
