The Design

m i t t e n s by w i e s e k n i t is at knitting pattern for a pair of mittens which is elegant, simple and have some beautiful details.

The pattern is written in an easy to understand language, and with few technical explanations.

A long the way I will guide you to measure the mittens, so you will end up with a pair of mittens that fits exactly to your hand.

The pattern is an ideal candidate for a scrap yarn project as you only need around 50 g of yarn.
