Balsam Mitts

Balsam Mitts Designed by Rachel Brockman These sleek mitts are designed with equal parts function and aesthetics in mind. The slipped ribbing pattern is very stretchy, giving a flattering and fitted look. The central slipped stitch of each rib column adds a subtle, pleasing detail, while also making for a resilient fabric. The thumb gusset is elegant in its restraint, growing into a reverse stockinette insert that highlights the surrounding rib columns. The highlight of this project is the central Twisted Panel which is so delicate looking, and fun to work, too! SIZES Adult Small (Medium, Large) Model wears size Small.
