The Berries & Butterflies mittens are a pair of mittens perfect for the nature lover and they are easy and fun to knit! The stranded colourwork makes them nice and warm as well.

Duplicate stitch is utilized to add a lot of fun detail, without having to carry more than two colours at a time.

The pattern has links to my accompanying videos on Youtube which explain the more technical aspects of the work (in English with English or Swedish subtitles).

The mittens are one size, which can be adjusted using bigger/smaller needles or lighter/heavier yarn.

One ball of each colour of the suggested yarn is more than enough for a pair of of mittens. Pattern is written for magic loop, but double pointed needles work as well if you prefer that.

Pattern is available in English and Swedish.

Techniques used: Stranded colourwork, kitchener stitch, duplicate stitch
