These easy mittens are slim-fitting and warm, with twisted rib edging, a thumb gusset designed to eliminate gaps, and a Kitchener Stitch tip on the fingers to make a neat edge. They will fit any ladies’ hand, from small-large.

Mt. Baker Mittens use easy techniques: knitting in the round and simple increases, finishing with a smooth, Kitchener Stitch top.

The yarn used in these mittens is Onion Mohair + Nettles + Wool in shades 1406 and 1404, held double. This creates an Aran weight yarn, roughly.
