Notes

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,
In the lane, snow is glistening.
A beautiful sight,
We’re happy tonight.
Walking in a winter wonderland.

The most adorable mittens I’ve ever seen! I love this romantic lace design so much!

knitting thought it would be more work, but the 4 mittens were finished in a good time.

result if fairies would need mittens, they would choose this ones! so adorable!

yarn for the inside I used a merino yarn from Lana Grossa, which is soft on my skin. for the outside I used a lovely alpaca yarn, which has this hairy but soft look. and this two look perfect together!

a few thoughts…
following the lace chart pattern is really difficult. I have to start 3 times, until it worked. One mistake = starting new! not the best with such a fluffy yarn, because you can not open a few rows without knotting it… puh!
