SPLIT DECISION MITTS use DK weight yarn with modular construction to create unique and useful fingerless mitts. These mitts use multi-directional garter stitch to create a fun and functional fabric. This pattern is available in 4 sizes and coordinates wonderfully with my Split Decision Hat!

Can’t decide which one to use as your main color? Make a split decision, and reverse them for the second mitt. This perfectly imperfect resolution lets you get away with using just one 50 g skein of each color for any size.
