The mitts were designed to use up yarn left over from the Temperance Shawl and the pattern picks up design elements from the shawl pattern.

The design was developed based on the yarn amounts left from my shawl, therefore the main colour used for cuff and top edging and in the striped patterns stays the same for both mitts, but the other two colours were used in reversed order on the second mitt to not run out of yarn. The yarn amounts given for the three colours below refer to the mitts as shown with reversed colours. Should you prefer to knit a matching pair, keep in mind that additional yarn in either colour 2 or 3 is needed.
