Snow Globe Mittens

“Snow Globe Mittens” have so many of the things I love: delicate snowflakes, snow-covered trees, a cozy cottage, a curious kitten, and anticipation of a Christmas miracle - all encapsulated in a snow globe!

Notes

1. Size: The mittens start with 60 stitches and are then increased to 70 stitches after the gusset. With recommended yarn, needles, and gauge the mittens should fit an 8” circumference hand. To make larger size mittens use larger needles or thicker yarn.

2. Stranded colorwork: Follow the charts from right to left. Make sure to catch longer floats using preferred method.

3. Options: You can choose how you want the full snow globe image to present itself. Option 1: the snow globe connects when the thumbs are put together (the wearer sees the full image). Option 2: the snow globe connects when the sides of your hands are put together (this way it is easier to show the full image to other people). Once you decide which option is best for you, follow the corresponding set of charts
