Twiddle Mittens - From The Lazy Knits Collection

The Lazy Knits Collection features 4 patterns (hat, mittens, cowl and pair of socks) that are perfect solutions for what to make with those special skeins of fingering weight yarn in your stash! Enjoy relaxing slip and textured stitches that allow speckles and variegated yarns to shine, and look elegant in solids and tonals too. Each project uses just 100g of yarn or less, so can be a great way to use up partial skeins and scraps, and come in multiple size options to perfectly fit you or your handknit gift recipient!

Please note that unless you select the “eBook” option, you will only receive the Twiddle Mittens pattern PDF with this purchase.
