These mitts are a simple design, easy and fast to knit, and great to work up for a gift or to keep for yourself. With a fun cable on either side of seed stitch, it reminds me of seeds in a basket. These are the perfect size to keep your hands warm, while leaving your fingers free. You can even wear them to read or craft.

Lynn Hough of Lynn’s Fine Yarn created this wonderful colorway, “Burgandy”. Her Sidewalk Sock is springy, easy to knit yarn. The color is fantastic! Find this more of Lynn’s hand dyed yarns at our little shop, The Hook and Needle Nook, LLC.

We hope you enjoy these mitts and enjoy being introduced to Lynn’s Fine Yarn!
