Star Sign Stash Mittens - PISCES

A stash yarn project to use up all those odd little remnants. This is the second in a series of 12 patterns, one for each star sign, for fingerless mittens featuring each sign's astrological symbol and worked in the colours most associated with that sign. For Pisces, I have chosen blues & sea greens but obviously these colours are open to individual interpretation. The mittens feature a fishscale border (to represent this water sign), a beaded edging & the Pisces symbol (worked in duplicate stitch). The pattern is offered in three sizes, to suit pre-teen to adults.

Each pair of mittens uses, according to size, 30-35g Main colour, 24-30g border colour plus 5g oddments of other colours, are worked flat, on single point needles & seamed together. The pattern includes row by row instructions with explanatory photos and charts for each size for placing the motif.

I have made my mittens using a superwash wool yarn but other DK yarns could be used if preferred.
