Enchanted Farmhouse Mittens Pattern

YARN

Fingering wt yarn held with lace wt yarn: For my cream sample, I used Shelridge Yarns.

Fingering wt yarn held double: One skein of any heavy lace wt or light fingering wt yarn. The total yardage needed will be approximately double the estimated yardage for a single strand.

OR

Touch Fine (80% SW Merino, 10% Cashmere, 10% Nylon), color “Oyster” held with The Autumn Acorn, alpaca-silk, undyed.

Estimated yardage needed for each:

• S: 275 yds (251 meters)
• M: 340 yds (311 meters)
• L: 380 yds (347 meters)
• XL: 415 yds (379 meters)

DK wt yarn substitution: You can easily substitute with DK wt yarn held single. Your fabric will be denser and will have less drape.

Estimated yardage for DK wt yarn held single:

• S: 210 yds (192 meters)
• M: 260 yds (238 meters)
• L: 290 yds (265 meters)
• XL: 320 yds (293 meters)
