A cozy colorwork mitten pattern with a repeating heart motif. Originally created for my mom. Knits up fairly quickly; there are not many long floats or complicated stitches.

Skills required:

  • stranded colorwork in the round
  • increasing (m1L/m1R) and decreasing (ssk/k2tog)
  • kitchener

Materials needed:

  • 50g each of two contrasting DK weight yarns, either two solid or one solid and one variegated/gradient
  • waste yarn
  • yarn needle

Gauge given comfortably fits a hand about 7.5” around at the palm. If your hand is larger or smaller, adjust yarn and/or needle size accordingly.
