Elephants never forget
Introducing our beautifully crafted elephant-themed mitts, worked in the round using the captivating intarsia colorwork technique. This unique pattern features elephants facing each other, creating a harmonious and playful design that adds flair to any wardrobe. In my sample of the mitts, I’ve swapped the charts from the final pattern because I love the idea of the elephants looking inward upon completion, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal.
This pattern is designed for one size only, but don't worry! You can easily customize the size of your mitts by selecting different yarn weights or needle sizes. Whether you choose a lighter or heavier yarn, you will achieve slightly smaller or larger mitts to fit your preferences.
