Star Sign Stash Mittens - LIBRA

A stash yarn project to use up all those odd little remnants. This is the ninth in a series of 12 patterns, one for each star sign, for fingerless mittens featuring each sign's astrological symbol and worked in the colours most associated with that sign.

For Air sign Libra, I have used shades of pink but obviously this is open to individual interpretation of the relevant colours. The mittens feature a lace butterfly border & a beaded edging with the Libra symbol (worked in duplicate stitch) added to the finished mittens.

Pattern instructions are in three sizes to suit pre-teen to adults & include row by row instructions with explanatory photos and charts for each size for placing the motif.

Each pair of mittens uses (in DK yarn) 35 - 40g Main colour, 20g border colour plus 5g oddments of other colours of choice and are worked flat, on single point needles & seamed together.

I have made my mittens using a superwash wool yarn but other DK yarns could be used if preferred.
