Fingerless mitts are great for their versatility – you can wear them on their own or under a bulkier pair of mittens. You can wear them indoors or outdoors. They are quick to make and are a perfect canvas for fancy pattern stitches. This particular mitt design incorporates a straightforward lace pattern where the decreases are placed in such a way that the end result looks almost cabled. The mitts are knit at a firmer gauge than normal for this yarn for added warmth. Perhaps the best part of this design? You can get two pairs of mitts out of one skein of yarn! Make a pair for yourself, then give someone special a fun little gift.
