Super cute and functional! These mittens totally hit the spot.

Whether you are driving around town, or trying to send a message in the freezing cold, the thumb and finger flaps allow you to free the digits you need while keeping the rest of your hand nice and toasty!

This unique design actually holds flaps into place when covering your digits. No more cold seeping in when you are trying to stay warm! Stylish buttons add flare and hold flaps into place when you need to use your fingers.

Punta’s yarn is perfect for this glove… The fiber of merino wool 21 microns has a great balance between softness and low pilling effect. Hand wash and air dry or dry clean. Cascade 220 Superyarn is an excellent alternative (use size 4 DPN if using this yarn).

This pattern fits an average size teen/adult hand. It is easily adjustable for larger or smaller sizes (instructions included).

Pattern is worked in the round on double pointed needles. use size 3 DPN for Punta, and size 4 DPN for Cascade yarns to obtain proper gauge
