These mitts were inspired by the lovely colors from Thriving Hive Studio. How could I not make some fingerless mitts? Knit with five colors, these mittens also make great stash busters for those leftover fade project remnants. Let your inner designer be your guide! Knit in the round in St st framed by garter rows. Thumb gusset is created with slip raised increase method for a smoother finish.

This pattern and my Zigzag Fingerless Mitts pattern were designed simultaneously in order to fully use five mini skeins from Thriving Hive Studio, resulting in two completely different fingerless mitts. If buying both patterns at the same time a discount will be given at checkout.
