Every fall, the kids request a new pair of fingerless mittens to wear for trick-or-treating (it can be mighty cold here in NE Ohio in late October! Last year, I made them the Whimsical Wrist Warmers) This year, my teenage daughter dressed as The Mad Hatter for Halloween and is OBSESSED with all things mushroom/toadstool. So naturally, her mitts had to have mini mushrooms on them. This design was too cute not to publish.

Due to the stitch count in the colorwork chart, this pattern only includes directions for one size. See notes in the pattern on how to adjust size.
