Oh Canada Mittens
Kate’s Oh Canada Mittens are also available in six sizes, from child’s small to adult large, and also only require two balls of Léttlopi to make.
Pattern is charted.

To save time, take time to check gauge
Gauge Note: Because the pattern repeat is large, and doesn’t offer many sizing options, I’ve chosen to use a gauge adjustment to create more sizes. There are 3 different chart patterns and 6 sizes overall: each chart is worked on both smaller and larger needles to create 2 sizes. Make sure you’re working at the correct gauge, using needles listed for your size.
