Albiera

Introducing the Albiera mittens, a beautiful and practical accessory that brings warmth and style to your winter wardrobe. Named after the Occitan word for "frost," these snowy convertible mittens feature a unique design that begins with a delicate twisted ribbing detail along the cuffs. This lovely detail is mirrored on the inside of the wrist, leading into an eye-catching chunky cable that beautifully blends with simple stockinette stitches. The ingenious convertible feature allows you to detach the rounded top of the mitten, providing freedom for your fingers while keeping your hands warm when needed.

The Albiera pattern includes comprehensive instructions for making these mittens in three different sizes, ensuring a perfect fit for everyone. Each size is charted for ease of use, making it a fantastic choice for adventurous or intermediate knitters. Using DK weight yarn, this project is quick to work up, allowing you to enjoy the satisfying crafting experience without a long commitment.

The sample for these stunning mittens was knit with Snaeldan 3ply yarn in a beautiful Cream White shade, enhancing the elegant design. Whether you're gifting them to a loved one or treating yourself, the Albiera mittens make for a cozy addition to your cold-weather essentials.

This pattern is conveniently available in both English and French, starting from page 13. Dive into the world of knitting with the Albiera mittens, where style meets functionality, and keep your hands warm in a chic way this winter!
