Kida mittens
The Kida mittens are knitted from the fingers down.
The color of the tip transitions into a fair isle pattern and gradually changes to the color of the main part of the mitten. Increases are made to shape the rounded tip. Then, the thumb gusset is knitted. Stitches are picked up and the thumb wedge is knitted using the Indian method.
Please note: in the technical videos I knit in Continental style.
