Hay Bay Mittens

Once that nip creeps into the air, I get the urge to do stranded color work. There’s something about having both hands buried in fluffy softness and watching the pattern magically emerge that is so very satisfying. Today’s pattern, the Hay Bay Mittens, features a classic diamond and chevron motif with delicate falling snow. Beginning with classic Latvian braid and continuing with a simple two-color pattern, Hay Bay is just challenging enough to keep you engaged. You’ll have a pair in no time working in cozy worsted weight yarn. The thumb is fully fashioned with a gusset and easy shaping makes a for nice rounded top. Choose two favorite colors and get going! You’ll have a pair by Monday. Be sure to post photos of your mittens on Instagram, #mittenmonthLCK

Hay Bay Mittens can be worked in any worsted weight yarn, but yardage may vary according to content. Stitch patterns are presented in charted form.
