The Geometer Mittens are the siblings to the Geometer Cowl and Geometer Sweater, and feature the same geometrical colourwork theme. They are knitted in the round from the bottom up, with a snug fit and a thumb gusset for an extra good fit. The main colour is solid and the contrasting yarn is the colour-shifting Dyed in the Wool which adds an extra dimension to the flowing geometrical pattern.
