Welties Mitts by Vickie Howell

Welt Good Mitts by Natalie Thomas
The crochet wristers, designed by Natalie Thomas, use slipped stitches paired with extended half-double crochet stitches to create a welted pattern.
This month concludes Natalie’s time as our 2021 Designer in Residence. If you get a minute, reach out to her @detroitknots to wish her well!
