Mitred Mitts

The Mitred Mitts are knitted flat and in garter stitch stripes. They start with a provisional CO, is worked in short rows around the thumb and closed by grafting. The combination of stripes and short rows results in a striking geometrical pattern.

Since these mitts are worked with two colours and at times with very short short rows it can be quite fiddly. It is NOT a beginner pattern.

The pattern PDF contains:
