The Finding Your Way Mittens are inspired by labyrinth gardens. As a child I loved to get lost in those gardens, trying to find my way to the center. Usually, a lookout tower nestled in there, made it all worth it. Breathtaking views over the hedges and another chance to puzzle my route back out. If you like sets, you can combine these mittens with the Finding Your Way Cowl which is available through Knotions.
