In the bleak mid-winter when the Christmas decorations and lights have been packed away for another year, I start to really crave the light. So I reach for some sunny yarn and knit myself a bit of sunshine knowing that by the time I’m done a pair of socks, the length of the days will already be increasing.

This pattern is fun to knit and looks very nice on both sides of the fabric so you can choose which side to wear out. It’s like two patterns in one!

These mitts are inspired by cold practice halls. Music warms the soul, but it takes time and effort. While waiting for the sweet strains to reach your hands, these mitts will allow you to keep your fingers on the strings without dropping your instrument!
