Ellington Mittens
​Interweave | Urban Knit Collection: 18 City-inspired Knitting Patterns for the Modern Wardrobe, 2016


Stranded colorwork creates a wonderfully insulating fabric because it traps air between the yarns. The small loop-and-button closure keeps these mittens together when not in use. It also provides a lovely opportunity to use a unique vintage button!
