If you want a slightly larger mitten, go up a needle size.

These mittens were inspired by a wonderful mitten pattern from the village of Paistu, in central Estonia. Nancy chose to create a mitten with a very short cuff, to resemble the older mittens found in the collection of the Estonian National Museum.
