This is the third in a series of mittens using designs inspired by flowers, both wild and domesticated. Generously sized, with a thumb gusset thumb and a wide cuff, Queen Anne’s Lace can be worked to fit many hand sizes and can even be used as a second layer over gloves. Worked in the round in two colors, from charts, duplicate stitching and added beads provide a little flash.
