Just about the warmest mittens you can make—worked with double-stranded pure wool RCY Epic Yarn, with the addition of the fantastic super-bulky weight Hand Maiden Flouf, to create a built-in lining. If you’ve ever wanted to try thrummed mittens but have been a little intimidated by how they’re made, this is a brilliant alternative, designed by Kate Atherley. They're just as warm and a little easier to make. Written for DPNs, magic loop or two circs— use whichever you prefer. Check out our Thrummish Hat pattern too, for a super warm and completely coordinated winter set!
