This pattern is designed to use one special skein of worsted and makes for fast gift knitting. Urth Uneek Worsted has long repeats of color, so each mitt is completely different but related. Choose a similar self-striping worsted yarn with multiple plies for longevity. The mitts can be worn inside out if you use duplicate stitch for weaving in your ends.

Construction: seamless, knit in the round
