Colour: Navy Blue
Needles: 2.75mm dpns

Knit up in sport weight yarn these were a quick and easy knit using up a remnant ball.
As in the vest I made for My Beloved, the end result with this yarn has a distinctly "demin" look about it.
Making the Small/Medium size in the hopes of having a finished product with a snug rather than sloppy fit for me I used less than half the skein. Still without a pair of my own I may just try the larger size with the rest of the yarn. That speaks to the quality of this pattern...not only is the end product good enough to warrant having a second pair, they are fun enough to knit to make me want to knit another pair!

Lovely knit, and glad to hear your Mom is back home.
They are so great. And I love the name. 'Fall Berry'. That's how I hear it - as separate words.
Thanks for this post. I've been looking for a sport-weight pattern for some mitts for my daughter to take with her when she goes to a conference in Montreal next month. I think these will be perfect.
In case you hadn't realised - I really like these mitts!
What an intriguing pattern that's just knits and purls? Usually I'm excited by cables and lace, but this I might have to look into someday myself.
