knot another hat basalt flow mitts (download)
Fingerless mitts, or gloves, can be fussy to make. But there is no denying that having a great pair of fingerless mitts to wear in cold weather is invaluable! Your hands stay warm, but your fingers are free to work. This pattern works especially well in striping and hand-dyed yarns, creating the look of waves of rock formed by ancient basalt flows.
Our blue sample used Berroco Millefiori Light, in 6382 Ocean and our Multi sample used Knitted Wit Herstory in Incense & Sensibility.
