These simple colorwork fingerless mitts knit up quickly with 3 colours of worsted weight yarn. The design is such that both mittens are identical, so there is no left or right. The colorwork pattern is very easy and is ideal for knitters who are new to colorwork but is fun and fast for knitters of all skill levels.
