Product Description
With the Fair Isle Mitten MKALendar you'll create a pair of colorwork mittens, fingerless mitts, or convertible flip-top mittens in 25 days. The mittens are worked from the cuff up in stranded colorwork using all sorts of fingering-weight yarn leftovers, scraps, half-a skeins, unicorn tails, or advent calendar minis. The pattern comes in three styles and four sizes designed to fit from kids to large adults.
Each day is presented as a stranded colorwork chart. All charts can be worked with just two colors but you can use as many as you wish! Your color choices determine whether your advent will be filled with classic or modern interpretations of traditional Fair Isle motifs. Regardless of how many colors you pick, all colorwork rounds are knit with just two colors and short floats. Tips for choosing and using colors are provided.
The pattern is written with both metric and US terminology. Only charted instructions are given for the daily colorwork patterns.
