Seashore Mitts
The Seashore Mitts make a perfect transition accessory for fall’s cooler weather. The eyelets, thumbhole, and wavy cuff lend an airy, elegant touch, while still providing plenty of warmth. They are a quick knit, making them a fun weekend project and perfect for a last minute gift! They also use a minimal amount of yarn, so they are a great stash buster or perfect for finally indulging in that small skein of yarn you have been hoarding. This pattern is written for a woman’s size small, with a section of modification tips for larger sizes.
