As a special request this pattern was designed to coordinate with the Boho Cozy and Beanie set.

Make to two mitts the same - there is no right or left hand.

There are many styles of stranded knitting in the world; traditional fair-isle is amongst the most famous. Only ever working with two colours at a time but looking much more complex, fair-isle patterns have their roots in the mists of time.

The motifs in fair-isle patterns are similar to Nordic and Spanish motifs; some attribute the patterns to foreign cast-a-ways, sailors ship wrecked on the rocks that surround the islands, who shared their traditional patterns or (most likely) the more prosaic trade that happens between countries, shared ideas and common heritages.

Embrace the bohemian spirit with the Boho Mitts knitting pattern. These fingerless gloves feature intricate colorwork and a cozy fit, perfect for chilly days. The pattern is written for intermediate knitters and includes detailed instructions for sizes ranging from small to extra-large. Worked seamlessly in the round, these mitts showcase the beauty of Shetland yarn and can be customized with your favorite color combinations.
