This is a pattern for a pair of mesh mittens, designed to resemble those fabulous mesh mittens from the 1980’s. It’s knitted using a simple lace stitch in the round. It’s knitted using 4ply Manos Alegria, which gives it such wonderful jazzy colours. One size fits most hands. Each glove needs blocking by stretching out while wet and leaving to dry.
