Featuring an off-center lace panel and 2x2 rib, the Allons Mitts begin and end with rolled stockinette. One of three designs in the Open Road Collection, they’re a feminine yet practical cool-weather accessory.

Inspired by Walt Whitman’s “Song of the Open Road,” the collection includes a coordinating sweater, mitts, and cowl that can be worn separately or together on your outdoor adventures.

“Allons! the road is before us!
It is safe—I have tried it—my own feet have tried it well—be not detain’d!”
—Walt Whitman, “Song of the Open Road”
