Thekla mittens

These mittens are part of my Thekla set, inspired by the colors of autumn. You find the matching hat in my store. The mittens are knitted seamlessly from the bottom to top. You need 2 colors with a strong contrast. I worked with Finkhof Merino duenn. Sock yarn held double will also work well.
