Bradbury muffatees up-do and original knit pattern
Inspired by the iconic Bradbury Building in Los Angeles, this is a pattern for a pair of stranded colourwork mitts.
These mitts are worked in the round, from the bottom cuff up. Feel free to try on your mitts, as you work, and if you need an extra motif or less a motif there, this is easily done.
This pattern has gone through a SMALL FARM YARN up-do!
The original pattern is still included which was knit with Andean treasure from Knit Picks (a sport yarn). BUT now is included a new pattern with a kit (pattern free with purchase of kit from 5 Sisters Farm).
