Are your thoughts turning to those of love as St. Valentine’s Day approaches? Perhaps you would like to show it with your knitting? Even though hearts are feeling warmer this time of year, the weather outside is not! Grab a skein of red or pink Santa Cruz and a skein of Estelle Alpaca Merino DK in a complimentary colour and make yourself a pair of “love”ly mittens. (Sorry, couldn’t resist) These would be just a beautiful in any colour that you enjoy, you don’t have to stick with the traditional colours of the season.
The pattern will fit most women’s hands, but is easily adjustable. The gauge listed is on 4mm needles with the Santa Cruz.
Kits can be purchased either in store or online from Wool & Silk Co.
