These fingerless mittens feature a fun pattern combining lace and slipped stitches. They are knit all in the round with a thumb gusset and are completely seamless. They will look as good in a plain as in a variegated colorway. For a zebra look use black and white yarn! The pattern is written, the lace part is both written and charted.

Skill level: intermediate.

Techniques: knit/purl in the round and flat, increase, lace, slip stitches.

Yarn: 50 grams of any fingering weight yarn. The sample was made in Wendy Happy yarn. But any sock yarn will work fine. Variegated and solid colorways are both great choices.

Gauge / size:
Size small / medium: 36 stitches and 44 rows = 4” (10cm) in stockinette (US 1 / 2.25 mm needles)
Size medium / large: 32 stitches x 40 rows = 4” (10 cm) in stockinette (US 2 / 2.75 mm needles)
