Pattern Description:

Finely knit fingerless mitts feature a pretty double-scalloped lace pattern. The fingering weight wool makes a thin yet warm fabric, these are not your average bulky mitts.

They are pretty and practical without being too fussy. The lace pattern looks beautifully complicated, but it is a very simple repeat of decreases and yarn overs. The underside and thumb is worked in a smooth stockinette stitch.

Makes a great last minute holiday gift!
