I am now retired from knit design due to progressive arthritis and I am offering my designs to Ravelry users for free. I will not be providing designer support any longer but my patterns are tech edited and almost all have been tested.

This lace-and-bead fingerless mitt is worked flat with paco-vicuna from Victory Farm or the more accessible Juniper Moon Farm Findlay. The pattern includes a tutorial link for a simple beading technique with a crochet hook on k2tog and slip sts (no bead stringing required). This is an intermediate pattern for those with experience on fine gauge yarn and needles.

S M, L fits 5.5 6, 6.5”/ 14 15, 16.5 cm wrist and 6.5 7, 7.5”/ 16.5 18, 19 cm hand circumference.

Approximately 130 135, 140 yds/119 123, 128 m of lace-weight yarn
