Berry Picker Knit Gloves with Fingerless Option Pattern
<<< This is not a product listing for a finished pair of mittens. This listing is only for a knitting pattern. Full video tutorial on YouTube: Berry Picker Knit Gloves and Mittens Tutorial >>>
The Berry Picker Knit Gloves Pattern features two finishes: full gloves and fingerless gloves. Pattern for the fingerless option was previously released with a fingerless mitt pattern. This is somehow a pattern update but is now being released instead with a full gloves option.
