Bring a playful piece to your winter wardrobe with these cozy, three‑tone mittens. Designed to highlight one bright pop of white against two contrasting shades, the colourwork feels fresh, modern, and delightfully fun to knit.

Yarn:
Main colour (MC): 21 (22) 23 (24) 26 (27) 28 g of DROPS Daisy uni colour 01 (off white),

Contrasting colour 2 (CC2): 33 (35) 37 (39) 41 (43) 45 g of DROPS Daisy uni colour 10 (light blue).

The mittens are worked using three different colours, I recommend choosing one pop of colour (white) paired with two contrasting colour (purple and blue).

This mitten is worked from the wrist upward, begin with 2 rounds in the contrasting color, continue in white. After completing the cuff the needle size and color are changed without any increases to shape the hand. Stitches for the thumb are placed on hold, and the hand is knitted to the fingertips while make the decreases. Finally, additional stitches are picked up around the thumb gap and worked together with the held stitches to complete the thumb.
