Larkspur Fingerless Mitts
Knit with Quince & Co Finch, these hand warmers are worked from the wrist-up. Shaping is created with a thumb gusset and each mitt features a larkspur lace motif up the front and stockinette stitch across the palm and thumb. These hand warmers are designed to fit with zero ease, however, they have a decent amount of stretch due to the lacework pattern across the top. Measure your hand circumference at the widest part of your palm to determine which size is the best fit for you. (It is recommended to size down if you fall between sizes.)
The model wearing the gray mitts has a 7” (18 cm) hand circumference and is wearing a size S/M. One skein of Finch is sufficient to knit either size, however, if you decide to extend the Wrist or Palm length, this will affect the yardage required.
Instructions are given in both written and charted instructions. The chart is for the lacework ONLY.
