Notes
These mittens were inspired by the leftover colours
I had after making my second Martinique Cowl.
The yardage given is just an approximation of how
much yarn is required for the pair of mittens. It is
always better to overestimate the amount of yarn
required when starting this project, especially if
there will be changes made to lengthen the cuffs or
thumbs. The different colours can be carried up on
the inside the mitten or can be cut and rejoined
when needed.
