These fingerless mittens combine 2 different colours of Scheepjes Downtown to create a crazy stripe effect wrapped around your hands. Its really fun to see how the 2 colours combine as you work! A tapestry technique is used to carry the non-working yarn within dc sts as you work the project in the round as a large spiral.

Skill level suits an intermediate crocheter. Techniques include tapestry crochet, shaping, careful tension control (this is the challenge for this design) and spike dc stitches.

Price is in Australian dollars and VAT appropriate to country of purchaser will be added at check out for Ravelry to process.
