These mittens from Arne and Carlos are practical and beautiful, just as good Norwegian mittens should be. Knit to a firm gauge for warmth and durability, they feature folkloric swirls on the top of the hand and thumb, and checkered diamonds on the palm.

The Rosy Mittens can be worked in the five colors shown all at once; they can be worked in just the two main colors (red and white or red and black as shown) with the extra color flourishes added with duplicate stitch; or they can be worked in two colors only.

If you prefer to work using only two colors per rnd, you may work all sts shown in C, D, and E using B instead, then once the mittens are complete, you may work the sts in C, D, and E using duplicate st. For the two-color sample, C, D, and E were omitted.
