New. You will get two patterns for the prize of one. Mittens for her and for him. The pattern comes in English, Icelandic and Norwegian.

The mittens are worked in the round from the bottom to top using 5 double pointed needles, followed by knitting the thumb using 4 double pointed needles.
Begin with needles US 1.5 (2.5 mm) and knit the edge, the Latvian braids and the cuff chart pattern. Then change to needles US 2 (2.75 mm) and knit the body of the mittens chart pattern.
The size is women’s medium but it is easy to change the size using smaller or bigger needles: for women’s small use needles US 1 (2.25 mm) and US 1 (2.5 mm) and for women’s large use needles US 2 (2.75 mm) and US 2 ( 3 mm).
For a pair of mittens you will need 1 skein of main color, 1 skein of contrast color 1, 1 skein of contrast color 2 and 1 skein of contrast color 3 and 4 or you may use any fingering weight leftover yarn you have.
