The Ghostly Mitts stay in place thanks to the loop worn on the middle finger. These mitts are worked back and forth from the cuff up to the pointed tip. The mohair/silk blend yarn has a slight halo that gives these mitts their ghostly aura.

NOTES

• These mitts are worked back and forth in one piece from the cuff edging to the pointed tip, then finished with a length of I-cord. The I-cord is sewn to form a loop, and the edging is seamed to form a cuff.

• For stability of the lower edge, a double strand of yarn is used to cast on, and then a single strand of yarn is used for the remainder of the mitt.
