An excellent first project for experimenting with linen, this little bath mitt is lovely, practical, and simple to knit. Warm Springs is worked flat and finished tidily with a 3-needle bind-off. Easy garter and slip stitches create a perfectly scrubby texture, and eliminate the need to purl. Gift this luxurious mitt to a friend, or keep it to pamper yourself. The Quince & Co. Sparrow is a 100% organic linen that softens with each wash.
