“The hundred years had passed, and Sleeping Beauty was to be awoken. When the prince arrived at the thorny hedge, he found it full of beautiful, big flowers.”
Look through your button and yarn stash to embellish these mittens with flowers from the thorny hedge. They are worked in sportweight or DK yarn for the larger sizes, and fingering-weight yarn for the smaller sizes. They feature a sore thumb, and both mittens are the same, except for the embellishment on the back
