Mostly Mittens: Ethnic knitting designs from Russia

Developed by Russia's Komi people, these patterns were originally passed down visually from knit pieces, so they're easy to understand and knit. They only look complex! This updated version of Charlene Schurch's previous collection includes her original designs plus new versions of several mittens.
 
Mittens are knit in the round and include a thumb gore for excellent fit
Collection features patterns for 35 pairs of mittens plus four traditional hats
Projects use stranded color work and include easy-to-follow color-coded charts
 
This is an absolutely wonderful book with large, clear photos of each mittern, detailed charts, lots of information on how to read and modify the charts and even how to calcuate how to knit a benie that matches your mittern pattern.
