Dimorphous Mittens
These versatile mittens will give you the option of warmth from the first leaf of fall to the last snow and everything in between. The simple Inner Mitten is worked in the round with a thumb gusset and a slim-fitting hand in sock weight yarn, while the Outer Mitten is worked in a drapey, luscious, DK weight yarn. Includes instructions for gloves, fingerless gloves and fingerless mitts as well. This pattern is sized to fit a 7.5” hand (measured around the palm) with about .5” of negative ease. This allows for a comfortable and secure fit. The bottom portion of the Outer Mitten is worked flat until the keyhole is finished, and then the rest of the mitten is worked in the round. All other portions of the pattern are worked in the round. INNER MITTEN Yarn Requirements: 1 skein (only 60 gm) of Trekking XXL (75% Superwash Wool/25% Nylon, in color 321.
