Diamond Lattice Mittens

Worsted-weight mittens are one of my absolute favorite projects to knit. They are incredibly quick and satisfying, making them perfect for gifting to loved ones during the chilly seasons. Plus, these delightful mittens require less than one skein of yarn, which makes them not only economical but also a fantastic option for using up your yarn stash or trying out new colors. To add a little flair, this pattern introduces an easy-to-work slip-stitch diamond pattern on the backs of the mittens, elevating their style and making them uniquely yours. The inclusion of a thumb gusset ensures a comfortable fit, while the nicely rounded top offers a timeless, classic look.
