Rowe Mittens are thick, warm, and sturdy mittens. The mittens are worked from the wrist toward the fingertips, either in the round on double-pointed needles or on a long circular needle using the Magic Loop technique. Both mittens are worked the same way.
The work begins with a decorative i-cord edge before continuing with the pattern. Increases are worked to shape the thumb gusset, and the mitten is shaped with decreases at the top.
The pattern is structured and easy to follow, and includes photo references to help guide you through the steps.
