Usually, I crochet, but I saw this knitting pattern for Simple Autumn Mittens by Halldora J on Ravelry and thought I just must share it. I love the feminine, lacy, pattern … don’t they just look soft and wonderful?

The mittens pictured were made by hollysmom2 on Ravelry and are made with Paca Paints Yarn from The Alpaca Yarn Company, using the colorway called Wisteria Way. I know they are soft and I know they’ll be warm, because they’re made from alpaca … I can almost feel them on my hands!

Just one skein of this yarn is all it takes, and size US 2 – 2.75 mm knitting needles. Paca Paints yarn comes in twelve different colors. I think anyone of them would look spectacular knit up into these mittens.

If you’re not a member of Ravelry, you can also find the pattern here. Instructions are both written and charted.
