CONSTRUCTION

• The mitt is worked circularly from the bottom up. The cuff is worked in a two-color mosaic pattern that requires the use of a single color per round, but mimics stranded colorwork.
• A thumb gusset is worked in the lower part of the hand, then thumb stitches are placed on waste yarn to be finished after the remainder of the hand is worked.
• The cuff pattern is provided in both charted and written form.
• Two sizes are provided. Sizing may be altered further by changing needle sizes as needed to adjust fit.
