ABOUT THE PATTERN

This is a fun, quick chunky knit creating a pair of cozy mittens with a heart on the palm of each hand.

This pattern includes both written instructions and charted instructions. With your purchase you will receive 2 PDF files: one for the written instructions and one for the charted instructions, making it easy to navigate your preferred instruction type. If you are working the charted version, be sure to only print the pages you need for the size you’re working to save on paper and ink!
