These fingerless mittens feature a lovely leaves garland made in lace. They are knit all in the round with a thumb gusset and are completely seamless. They are entertaining to knit and will look as good in a plain as in a variegated colorway. 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.

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