The hand spun angora by Exquisitely Angora is just that- exquisite. This was a yarn that we fell in love with, as did our customers; however we didn’t know what to make that would only take one skein. Since this yarn is so fluffy, people didn’t want it as a cowl, and customers really wanted a fast and fun fingerless mitts pattern, so I came up with this. I prefer to seam than knit in the round, so that is what i did. I like the contrast yarn, because you can have fun with color, and possibly use some leftover yarn!
This pattern is as easy as you think it should be, and between my mom and I, we have knit 30 + pairs! This has been a shop favorite for years and customers are still making them!
Other hand spun works well, as does other Angora that is not handspun.
