DETAILS
Mosaic is one of my favorite forms of colorwork! You can create a diversity of incredible patterns with more simplicity than traditional colorwork. These mitts combine a very basic stranded technique for the cuff and then move into the mosaic colorwork for the body of the mitten.
Learn how to work these 2 styles of colorwork, in addition to a thumb gusset and decreasing in pattern! Each 1 hour session will focus on a new technique!
