June Mittens
The June Mittens feature stranded colorwork and showcase a nice variety of banded and all-over patterns.
The mittens begin with a provisional cast on followed by a folded cuff, then the body is worked in a series of geometric colorwork patterns.
Much like the Bohus mittens we published in May, the June Mittens use a larger amount of the main color and smaller quantities of three contrast colors so they are perfect for using up leftover yarn from previous mittens. We are also providing two totally different colorway options for you with both charts included in the pattern.
The mittens use approximately 20 grams of CC1, and 10 grams each of CC2 and CC3.
