Yankee Knitter Designs Knitting Pattern #18 Mittens

Pattern Mittens is a two-needle mitten knitting pattern from Yankee Knitter Designs (#18) by Melinda Goodfellow, with nine motif charts: pine tree, reindeer, doll, sheep, snowflake, rabbit, heart, sailboat and whale.

The mittens are knit flat on straight needles, so there are no double-pointed needles to manage. A gentle introduction to colourwork and a good stash-buster.
