Flip-top mitts PDF pattern by Lydia Gluck Lightweight and convertible, these flip-tops take advantage of sock weight yarn to cut down on bulk. The slip-stitch detail on the cuff is as functional as it is fabulous, great for keeping wrists cosy. The pattern features instructions for the open thumb shown, as well as a closed top version. And if you don’t fancy the flip-top, these work just as well as fingerless mitts, just omit the flip-top instructions. However you want your fingers, we have them covered (or uncovered as the case may be). 3 sizes; hand circumference: 18 (20.5, 23)cm / 7 (8, 9)” at widest point Yarn: Quince & Co.
