Boysenberry Mittens

Introducing the Boysenberry Mittens: a delightful and sweet way to keep your hands warm during those chilly days! Have you noticed the charming return of bobbles in knitted designs? These playful elements truly enhance the texture of the fabric, making your knitting experience not only rewarding but also incredibly fun. These simply shaped mittens, featuring a rounded top, showcase a delightful puffy berry motif set against a backdrop of directional stitches that create visual interest. The mittens are expertly designed with an innovative afterthought I-cord edge treatment, which supports a stylish long cuff and allows for a fully fashioned thumb gusset for ultimate comfort and fit.
