Ok, that's a lie.
I could love them MORE if I hadn't had to rip out the initial design three times before I was happy with the finished product. But I DO love them. Oh. So. Much.
These mitts are loooong... meant to be worn the full length of your forearm to keep you nice and toasty on these chilly fall days. They're fitted to the arm so they fit under sweaters and jackets easily and are mirror images of one another.
And the BEST part (IMO of course)? They're fully reversible so if you want to wear the Chevrons on your palms instead, you can go right ahead.
The mitts feature the Trusty Sock base from Nomadic Yarns in two colorways: a solid, "Smoke, and a self-stripping, "The Slutty Pumpkin". Ashley has a wide range of self striping yarns that would be beautiful in this pattern - go check them out and decide which one makes you happiest. I kind of want to do the "Poolside" - it's amazing!
And guess what? Nomadic Yarns has done up a Dye to Order kit for these patterns so you can order them in combo. Check it out!

Anyway - here are the mitts... do you love how the Smoke decreases at the elbow mirrors the increases for the thumb? Makes me SOOOOOOOO giddy!
Go make your own - keep your fingers warm when you're drinking your winter beers (and I hope you get a glass as awesome as the one in these photos!).
Happy knitting, lovelies!!!
