The Yule mittens are a really fun project to make!
The little robin on the top makes them really special, I think.
The mittens are knitted with mostly two colours and one part is knitted with three colours at the sime time. The details on the robin, like the eyes and the beak, are made with duplicate stitch. To make the mittens extra cute and christmasy, you´ll add a ribbon around the wrist as a last touch.

I used three diffrent needle sizes on this project. Starting with 2.00 mm needles on the ribbing, you go upp to 2,25 mm needles on the cuff and 2,5 mm on the mitten.

The mittens come only in one size, however you can alter the size by going upp and down a needle size.

I used rauma finull and Ölands ullcenrum for my mittens.

I used Ölands ullcentrum natural white and Rauma finull: Dark beige, Heatherd dark red and heatherd dark green

You need approximately 50 g (175 m white) , 30-40g ( 105-150 m green, red and beige.)
