Marsali is a lacy and romantic little pair of fingerless mitts that use a small amount of yarn, making them perfect for shawl leftovers! I was inspired to design these to match the Drums of Autumn Shawl, so of course, I had to name them after one of my favorite Outlander characters, Marsali. The second sample uses the leftovers from the Ripple Effect Shawl - I cannot even explain how much I love matching fingerless mitts to shawls!

I included optional instructions for adding beads in the lace section. The little bit of sparkle they bring to the blue/white sample makes me so happy! You can see a video tutorial of how to add beads to your knitting here!
