Late Bloomer Mittens
Pattern by Kristin Ledgett
“The Late Bloomer Mittens were conceived on a sunny autumn day in Toronto. It was during a bike ride past lawns and gardens decorated with fall foliage that the idea took hold. Dinner plate-sized dahlias in burnt orange, yellow, and red bumped heads with towering sunflowers reaching toward a blue sky. These mittens were designed to imitate this jubilant mishmash of blooms.'“
Here at Twill, we were blown away by the beauty of this design, but thought it would be too difficult. We were pleasantly surprised to find it so cleverly designed and manageable to make.
The true danger is, we’ve not been able to stop at just one pair!
We have created kits in a variety of spring pastels as well as warm palettes for fall.
