Arrowroot Mitts are a simple stranded colorwork mitts pattern and would be a great pattern to try as your first colorwork project. The thumb hole is picked up from held stitches and worked at the end. Arrowroot Mitts feature our Heirloom Romney yarn which is a hard-working and lustrous wool that will hold up to wear and look great for years to come.
