Mohair Mitts!

A simple design with neat and tidy details to create a seamless pair of mitts that will keep hands warm in the winter (or even in the summer when the A/C gets set too low).

I love mohair for all the reasons… it’s fluffy ‘halo’, the fact it’s lightweight yet still warm, the durability, and the fun you can have mixing colors to create a custom yarn color.
