For these light-weight but very warm mittens, choose a soft fall or spring kid fleece with a staple length of 3-4 inches.

The lace pattern for the cuffs comes from Estonia. Nancy Bush used the design on socks featured in the Spring 1997 issue of Interweave Knits, and I’ve seen the same design on the backs of mittens in Tallinn.
