Lolancha Mitts are knit with Manchelopis, an unspun yarn from the Manchega Sheep in Spain. This yarn creates a fabric that is lofty, warm, and light; perfect for a winter mitts! There are tricks to working with this unique yarn, and the pattern includes a video to teach you how!

Yarn to knit Lolancha is available in my shop!

Lolancha Mitts start from the cuff up with twisted rib and a textured slipped stitch that glides up the outside of the arm. As the thumb gusset is created, the textured stitch starts to increase so that by the top of the mitt it is worked all the way around.
