As pretty as a spring day, these fingerless mitts will help keep the chill off your hands in a cool office or on an outdoor stroll. The longer length in the fingers allow you to curl them up into the mitt in chilly weather, while still being about to keep them free for easily checking your phone.

Worked in the round, the mitts use simple stitches to create a pretty , embossed lace pattern. The use of sock yarn to knit the mitts allows them to fit a broad range of sizes, making them a perfect quick knitted gift!

The pattern is both written and charted.

This pattern was the MKAL pattern for the FGF April 2019. The paid version of this pattern includes instructions on lengthening the mitts.
