Feliz Mitts came about of a thought of a feast - how just waiting for the party to get started makes you glad. There’s a feeling of thrilled expectation and happiness in the air. This feast is serving you mouth-watering pretty colors of blueberries, strawberries and avocados.

Feliz Mitts are fingerless gloves, knit from the bottom to the top with 2 strands of yarn (merino and silk mohair) held together.
Also you could use your scrappy sport weight yarns here.

Feliz Mitts feature stockinette stitch, generous stripes and knit-purl rib. Thumb gusset makes wearing the mitten very comfortable, and it is surprisingly easy to make.

The pattern is written with both US and metric terms.
