This design was inspired by my love for timberframed houses ( German Fachwek). The mitts are created to fit an adult sized hand.
The project works up quickly and is a good one to practice your beginner fair isle knitting skills. I chose only two colours to work with for the stranded knitting part, but you could also work with more colours.
I recommend to use fingering weight and sock yarn qualities.

In my sample I iused the following yarns and quantitites.

110 m of Yarn A; Main Colour
Jamieson & Smith 2ply Jumper Weight
Shade: FX11Mix ( green)

56 m of Yarn B; Pattern Colour
Jamieson & Smith 2ply Jumper Weight
Shade: 01A (Natural White)

14 m of Yarn C; Contrast Coulour
Jamieson’s Shetland Spindrift
Shade : 1020 Nighthawk

Enjoy knitting!
