Mitts Match
**Do Your Mitts Match?** Get creative with this versatile mitts design where the decision is all yours! You can create delightful matching mitts using the same main color (MC) and contrast color (CC) for both, or for a playful twist, mix it up with complimentary colors for mismatched mitts! If you're opting for two matching mitts, you'll need 70 (80, 100) yards of MC and 40 (40, 50) yards of CC. For those who want to embrace the fun of color swapping, you'll require 55 (60, 75) yards of each color to achieve that unique look!
The pattern features three distinct sizes along with detailed charts for each MC and CC option. To ensure your mitts fit snugly and cozily, choose the size that closely matches or is just below your actual hand circumference at the base of your fingers. This ensures maximum comfort and functionality while showcasing your knitting skills!
Materials Needed
For EACH mitt, you'll need DK-weight yarn:
