The long version of the Bermondsey mitts requires between 32 - 40g of the main colour, 12 - 15g of the contrast colour, and 2 - 3g of the edging colour. The short version is more lightweight, using just 18 - 22g of the main colour, 8 - 10g of the contrast colour, and similarly 2 - 3g of edging colour. This thoughtful structure allows you to mix and match colours effortlessly.

These mitts can easily be knitted to coordinate perfectly with the fashionable Bermondsey beret or beanie; see separate patterns for those styles.
