After our discussion, I knew I needed to make a pair of
mittens inspired by Ina Valtere herself. Designer labels inspired the Valtere mittens. Combined with traditional mitten construction methods, these mittens are ready for day-to-day life or even the runway! For multiple sizes, I recommend sizing up or down the needle size.

MATERIALS

Yarn:
Teksrena (Fingering, 100% Wool; 380 yds /
350 m per 100 g).
1 ball each in C1 (100), C2 (210), C3 (730), and
C4 (292).
C1 (White, 100): 380 yds / 350 m.
C2 (Black, 210): 380 yds / 350 m.
C3 (Brown, 292): 380 yds / 350 m.
C4 (Gold, 292): 380 yds / 350 m.

Needles: US 2 / 2.75 mm double-pointed needles
or 32” / 81 cm circular needles if using Magic
Loop.
Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain the
correct gauge.
