This design was inspired by gardens and the worlds we don’t see that are right in front of us.

These mittens are worked cuff up with the Latvian braids framing the wee flowers. The palm is a vine motif from Alter Knit by Andrea Rangel. Although the faerie motif does not have any repeats, the fun is seeing her emerge from the ferns to relish in your rose garden.

GAUGE: after blocking over pattern knit in the round: 40 st x 48 rounds = 4” (10cm)
