Festivity Mitts, PDF pattern

About The Design:

Knitters familiar with my Festivity Tea Cozy will recognize this colorful incarnation! Fingerless mitts are small, quick projects that can be knit year ‘round and saved up for holiday or winter birthday gifts.

The design is sampled in Lamb’s Pride Worsted, which makes such a cozy fabric. The pattern offers 2 sizes and 3 colorways. The S-M pair has a purl ridge before and after the color pattern, to encase the pattern. The M-L pair is worked without the purl ridges, for a more flowing design – knitter’s choice!
