Notes

7 Sept 2025: Thumbs could be better. Note for next time-- use provisional cast-on for top of thumb opening.

I got a little carried away with the hand decs and worked more than called for in the pattern. I decided to keep the pointy top as it matched the thumb shaping.

Aaaaand yes, there are 5 rows between the ribbing and colorwork on one mitten and only 4 on another. woman-facepalming
