These basic mitts are made all the more awesome (and nautical) by the addition of textured ribbing and a button flap. Use gold anchor buttons to really play up the nautical-ness. I used Vanna’s Choice because I had it on hand, but feel free to use any worsted weight yarn of your choosing.

This pattern is part of my Nautical Knits Collection, featuring the Yacht Club Scarf, the Captain’s Mitts, and the Sailor Slouch hat.
