Beaded Rib Mittens
Beaded Rib Mittens are made in a simple but interesting stitch pattern that creates a very stretchy fabric. The mittens are a fast knit and look best in a solid or semi-solid colourway - mine were made with Miss Babs Yowza in Boysenberry. The pattern has instructions for 3 sizes, in full and fingerless versions, and contains both written instructions and charts showing the whole mitten, including the thumb gusset.
A matching sweater pattern, Bear Hug, is available in my Ravelry store.
