Charlotte (or Lottie as you might know her) who works with us here at Stash, designs patterns when she’s not here in the shop and she’s got a pattern in the latest issue of Let’s Knit magazine, out today!
Her Echo Mitts are knitted in coordinating shades of Rowan Kidsilk Haze in shade #659/Ultra and Manos Del Uruguay Fino and feature a lacy edging and a faux placket adorned with cute little buttons.

While we don’t stock Manos Del Uruguay Fino, Artesano Alpaca 4ply in shade #7609/Paraguay would be a perfect substitute and is an almost identical colour (but you could use any 4ply yarn instead). Or you could try Debbie Bliss Rialto 4ply and Debbie Bliss Angel, Party Angel or Rowan Kidsilk Haze Eclipse for a more glamourous look! The mittens use less than half a ball of each so you could make two pairs from a ball of each yarn.
If you’re curious as to what goes into a design like this, Charlotte has written about the design process behind the mittens on her blog here.
Have a good weekend and Happy Knitting!
