These cheery mitts are a great way to use up a couple of balls of 4ply yarn, while also bringing some sunshine to a chilly Spring morning.
Using traditional stranded colourwork, the double thickness ensures the mitts are especially warm and comfortable, and the afterthought thumb allows the patterning to continue on the hand undisturbed.

Shown in shades 91 (yellow) and 132 (blue), 1 ball each.
