These fun little mittens are knit in the round on long circular needles, although you can use whatever method you prefer. The double start cast on is used to make a stretchy cuff that will still fit snug around your wrist. The ribbing used in the pattern makes for a super squishy fabric that feels lovely on your hand. The lace pattern is very easy to memorize and the bobbles are fun to knit. These mittens are sure to work up in no time and use only 100 yards (92 meters) of DK weight yarn making them a great stash buster.
