These fingerless mitts by designer Susan Baron use geometric shapes and both bold and subtly transitioning colors to create an impactful effect. The solid cuffs and ribbing are offset against the cabled design in gradient colors on the hand, resulting in a pair of mitts that no one can resist.
Bitty Blooms are pairs of color-shifting yarn cakes, in which each cake begins with one color and gradually shift to end with another color. The colors are in the inverse order in the second cake. Instructions are included to ensure the mitts are made to match.
