Arctic Spring Mittens
"These soft and feminine alpaca mittens with a vintage feel include a scalloped hem and a peasant thumb," reports Blanchard. "They are knit from the cuff to the tip and the beginning of the row is at the outside of the hands so any resulting color pattern jogs are less noticeable. These mittens are knit at a tighter gauge to counteract alpaca's tendency to stretch." Blanchard, a new modern mistress of colour and technique, here celebrates a traditional form in a breathtakingly accomplished way. It's an excellent pattern that is very knowledgeable, assured, and empowering.
