Star Sign Stash Mittens - TAURUS

A stash yarn project to use up all those odd little remnants. This is the fourth 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 Earth sign Taurus, I have used greens & pinks but obviously these colours are open to individual interpretation. The mittens feature a 'bullhorn' lace pattern border, a beaded edging & the Taurus 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, 35 - 40g Main colour, 15-20g border colour plus 5g oddments of other colours. They 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 DK superwash wool yarn but other suitable DK yarns could be substituted if preferred.
