Notes:
In order to work the argyle pattern, wind the MC into two equal balls.

The mittens are worked flat and then sewn up along the side. The thumbs are worked separately in the round and then sewn to the mittens. The main diamond of the argyle pattern is worked using intarsia and the accent lines are added later using duplicate stitch.
