We were scurrying around the shelves recently when we found some amazing extras in Tosh Merino Light squirreled away! These shades looked so amazing all together, we figured these mitts were just meant to be. Thank you, mysterious squirrel angel - whoever you are!

Two different colorways are shown - one has the stockinette side showing, the other shows the reverse stockinette side. Both mitts are knit identically - with the stockinette side out. The reverse
stockinette version has simply been turned wrong side out.

You’ll need to choose which version you plan on making before beginning, as you’ll want to be hiding your ends on whatever
will be your wrong side.
