Collect four colors of DK weight yarn to knit these dip stitch mittens. There are four sizes, each with a different circumference, and the length of each size is customizable. Begin with a ribbed cuff and continue into the beautiful dip stitch pattern, which forms clusters of stitches that look like shells. These mittens are quick to knit, making them perfect for gift giving or a special treat for yourself as you take long winter walks or bike rides.
