Multiple shades of undyed pure wool combine in each color of Wildwood. The latest addition to the MountainTop Collection, Wildwood is a pleasure to knit. One thick and thin gently spun ply is wrapped with a thinner second ply for a subtle texture with surprisingly good stitch definition. Its loftiness allows it to be knit at a wide range of gauges and the generous 100 g hanks with 262 yards make for
affordable projects.


Worked in the round with a thumb gusset, each mitten will fit either hand. Work the cuff in rib after casting on, or work in Stockinette stitch and add a decorative crochet edge when the mitten is complete.
