The Elinor Mittens are a pair of feminine, beautiful and useful mittens. The perfect match for Virginia Headband.

The Elinor Mittens are worked from the wrist up. The cuff is worked in single rib, while the rest of the mitten is worked in broken rib. The scalloped edge will be crocheted onto the mittens at the end.

The Elinor Mittens can be worked in one color, but the design is also well-suited to being worked in different colored scrap yarns. The change of colors creates a lovely effect in combination with the broken rib.
