The power of the moon is fascinating—its light, its energy, and the way it expresses itself through different phases. These mittens are adorned with a subtle but striking lunar design that symbolizes strength, comfort, and growth.

The mittens are knit from the cuff up. The palms and thumbs display an allover geometric colourwork pattern, while the back of the hand shows a flowing moon-inspired motif. Patterns (both front and back) are mirrored on the left and right hands.

Beaurivage Frisonne Fine is a soft yet toothy yarn, with a slight halo that makes it well suited to stranded colourwork, and perfect for a cozy winter accessory.
