Briar’s Blossom Mitts were created in honor of my youngest daughter Briar. These are knit with soft wool yarn in jewel tones. Change up the colors and customize. This is a wonderful project for the knitter who wants to sample knitting Fair Isle, or even use up leftover stash for a very pretty mitt. Written instructions with color charts plus full pattern chart.

There are two sizes available, S/M and M/L
S/M - 34 stitches by 40 rows = 4” square.
M/L - 30 stitches by 38 rows = 4” square.
S/M measures 7” in circumference and 7 1/2” in length.
M/L measures 8” in circumference and 8” in length.

Skill Level: Intermediate

Tools: Double-pointed needles, stitch markers, tape measure, tapestry needle, scissors, and small amount of smooth scrap yarn for thumb gusset.
Needles: For S/M use US 0 (2.0mm), and US 1.5 (2.55 mm); for M/L use US 1 (2.25 mm), and US 2.5 (3.00mm) double-pointed needles, or size needed to obtain gauge.
