Big yarn + small needles = toasty hands. Knit at a worsted gauge, these bulky mittens will block out cold winter winds. Perfect for first time mitten knitters, the design only looks complex, using only a mix of knits and purls, allowing you to focus on the basic shaping and gusset.

The Skyward Mittens are worked in the round from the cuff, with symmetrical textured knit-purl patterns.

Stitches used: Knit, Purl, Make One increase, Knit 2 Together and Slip Slip Knit decreases.
