“Erte Mittens” is a love song of twisted ribbing and lace. Inspired by a popular Art Deco fan motif that is pure jewelry for your outfit.

To emphasize this style, even more, the entire mitten is worked with an elegant pattern and a faux cable following the one side and is reminiscent of a beaded necklace.

A luxury blend of Rivioli Sport yarn and its silky sheen is a nice touch to the pattern. Mitts are knitted in the round with circular needles using the magic loop method.
