2022LD-7 Lexie Mittens (Digital Download)
So many new techniques in such a small space! Knitting mittens from the fingertips to the cuff will introduce you to Judy’s Magic Cast-On, an afterthought thumb, picking up stitches to add a ribbed cuff below a rolled edge, and a sewn bind-off. The fingertips and cuffs make use of our Bocados (25g mini-skeins of Alegria Grande) for maximum color-play.
