Hilda lace mittens.

First of all – these mittens might seem difficult to knit, but be brave – it is not so difficult at all. You just need to knit instead of 2 mittens 4 mittens.

Material:
For basic mittens you need 100% wool rove + 100% wool 8/2 yarn. (I love to use natural colors – lambsbrown, -gray, -white or handdyed yarns).

For lace mittens you need 100% wool 8/2 yarn. (I prefer to use natural white or any other lighter color as the basic mittens yarn – then the result is romantic and gentle).

Needles: size 4 mm (US No 6) for basic mittens, size 4 or 5 mm for lace mittens. (I prefer to knit lace covering with 4 needles instead of 5 needles. It is little bit difficult, but the result is much more beautiful).
