Want to get $108 worth of patterns for free? Arctic Knits is a collection of fifteen unisex and size-inclusive colourwork designs from the arctic, valued at $156. You can purchase Arctic Knits here for only $48.

Arktos mitts is part of my very first book, Arctic Knits.

The mitts are knitted bottom-up and in the round, featuring a stranded colourwork motif throughout. The thumbs are knitted using the afterthought thumb technique. You can choose to “mismatch” your mitts as shown in the photos or knit two identical mitts.
