Tunisian Protea Mitts

TUNISIAN PROTEA MITTS

Mittens, with a protea design, done in Tunisian knit stitch with stranded color-work, giving the appearance of knitting Fair Isle.

This design has a special place in my heart as it was done for me by my dear friend, Stephanie Davies, to represent my brand.
