Snow Ghost mittens are knit in the round from the cuff up. They feature a knit-in-hem for warmth, fit, and to help retain shape over time.

Right and left mitten charts are included in two color options: light on dark background and dark on light background. Work from the set of charts that best represents your choices in colors.
