Acorn Teeth
Originally published in 2012, the stunning Acorn Teeth mitts have received an exciting update as part of the Paper Tiger Fall/Winter 2013 collection! This modern knitting pattern is perfect for knitters looking to create beautiful, cozy accessories. Knitted at a fine gauge using fingering weight yarn, these three-color mitts are not only aesthetically pleasing but also provide warmth during colder months.
The design features intricate colorwork in the Fair Isle style, which means you’ll work with no more than two colors per round, making it accessible even for those who are newer to color knitting. For added detail, Vikkel braids line the top of the mitts, giving the motifs a stunning textural pop that elevates their overall visual appeal.
Available in three sizes—Small, Medium, and Large—these mitts can accommodate a wide range of hand sizes with circumferences of 7.5” (Small), 9” (Medium), and 10.5” (Large) when unstretched. This flexibility makes them ideal for gift-giving or personal use, ensuring a comfortable fit for everyone.

- Yarn color A: 115 (135, 160) yards of Zitron Lifestyle (100% superwash merino wool, 169 yards per skein) in Evergreen (#83) - 1 (1, 1) skein
