The mitts are knitted bottom-up and in the round, featuring a stranded colourwork motif throughout. The thumbs are knitted using the afterthought thumb technique. You can choose to “mismatch” your mitts as shown in the photos or knit two identical mitts. **Hand Circumference** cm- 16 (20.5) 23.5 inches - 6 (8) 9 **Hand Length** cm- 16 (19) 21.5 inches - 6 (7½) 8½ **Cuff Circumference** cm- 13.5 (19) 21.5 inches - 5¼ (7½) 8½ **Yarn** Biches et buches le petit lambswool held double with le petit silk mohair Colour a - light brown Colour b - white **Yarn Substitute** **Mohair** [Rowan Kidsilk Haze][2] [Valley Yarns Southampton][3] [Berroco Aerial][4] [Rico Essentials][5] **Fingering weight yarn** [Berroco Vintage Sock][6] [Cascade 220 Heritage Solids][7] [Knitpicks Stroll Merino][8] [Knitpicks Capretta][9] [Universal Yarns Uni Merino Mini][10] **Yardage** Yardage is calculated based on mismatched pair and is listed for each colour.
