This pattern listing is for the entire Palmistry Collection. When you purchase this collection, you will receive the FINGERING, DK, WORSTED & BULKY weight versions of the Palmistry patterns. Each pattern includes instructions for toddler-adult XL fingerless mitts and full mittens. The patterns can be downloaded as a single PDF and then printed separately.

Palmistry is the art of reading the future using the lines of the hand. The lifeline is the most important line in palm reading, and it is the star of these mittens. The thumb gusset is easy to work and creates a clean ridge along your lifeline. If you are looking for a mitten adventure, I predict you will find what you seek in the Palmistry mittens. This pattern looks great in solids and speckles, but is particularly fun in self-striping yarn.
