Dragonhart Mitts

Calling all dragon riders!

Are you tired of scratching your hands on your dragon’s scales when you ride her? Now this problem can be avoided completely! Release YOUR inner dragon and protect your hands at the same time! (Not to mention you can now match your dragon!)

These mitts are soft and warm, and everything a dragon rider needs! The scaly part encircles your entire palm, and the sleek arm pattern tucks nicely inside your coat sleeves, so you can have comfort and warmth without the struggle of tucking gloves inside your sleeves.

These mitts can be worked in both fingering and sport weight yarn, and the pattern includes separate instructions for the sport weight and fingering weight sizes.

Hook: E (3.5 mm)

Yarn: Sport or Fingering weight yarn (options are written for both)

Sizes: 6", 7", 8" (Child L/Women's XS, Women's Medium, Women's L/XL) - both fingering and sport weight

• Photo AND written tutorial for crocodile stitch
• 2 edging options
• A flexible thumb hole (can be customized)
• A Crocodile Stitch technique that allows for working smoothly in the round without turning
