Fly home Ladybird!
October leaves are turning,
soon the frost will bloom.

Every fall the ladybirds gather, sitting on windowsills and exchanging predictions about the first snow. These mittens pay tribute to the little warriors that kept our garden safe all summer, may they keep your hands warm all winter.

These colorwork mittens put a new spin on traditional techniques, designed from top to bottom with a two color cast on and seamless cast off.
