Mug Up - Long Trigger Mitts for Ladies

Trigger Mitts are a favourite for Newfoundlanders and Labradorians because they provide both the warmth of mittens and the handiness of gloves. Mug Up was developed by the authors of the popular Saltwater Knits series, Christine Legrow and Shirley Scott. More patterns like Mug Up can be found in this three-book series, published by Boulder Books.
