Glitz
This pattern is found in Knit Happy with Self-Striping Yarn and cannot be purchased as an individual download. The book is available for purchase HERE on Indiebound or HERE on Amazon.
The Glitz Mittens are packed with hearts and a sprinkling of speckles. These little speckles add some glamour to your mittens and also create a lovely place for your self-striping yarn to transition smoothly from one color to the next. The Glitz Mittens are knit in the round, from the bottom up, using stranded colorwork. The self-striping yarn creates a big impact in this project with little effort and just a few ends to weave in. If you’ve been wondering about what your self-striping yarn would look like in a stranded colorwork project, these mittens are a wonderful place to test out your curiosity.
