Using a nifty mosaic knitting technique, these mitts are designed to give all the ooph of fair isle knitting with less of the faff… Advanced learner friendly, this pattern includes working in the round, with two colours, whilst slipping stitches in each row to create a beautiful colour work motif. The thumbs sit centrally in the pattern, meaning that two identical mitts are knitted to create a pair.

These mitts were designed for Peak District Yarns to showcase the beautiful range of Bleating Becka’s yarn from local Derbyshire Gritstone sheep… Making this pattern reared, sheared, hand dyed and designed in Derbyshire!
