Beenoskee Mittens
A free version is also available.
The Beenoskee ripple stitch crochet mittens are perfect for all ages, from toddlers to adults! They are inspired by Beenoskee Mountain in Ireland, a name that means “peak above the wind”. These warm, textured mittens will keep you cozy on outdoor adventures, whatever the weather.
The pattern is available free on my web site, along with patterns for a matching hat and cowl. The ebook comes in both UK and US crochet terms options, and in standard and large print options and abbreviation free format. (see details below)
