Crossings

An elegant fingerless mitt in two sizes S(L) featuring crossed lace vines front and back (palm is worked in stockinette). The rich texture and complex appearance of the lace panels make this pair a special piece to knit and wear. Length may be shortened by reducing the number of rows worked for the wrist.
Substituting yarn and/or needles may result in an overall variation in size.
