Product Description
This is a pattern for fingerless mitts. They measure approximately 4- 5 inches from your thumb up your arm. They feature cable stitch patterns on both sides of the mitts, with a ribbing center for shaping. The stitches are both charted and written out ‘line by line“. The mitts also have a thumb gusset to ensure the best fit, and allow you to type, text or knit with warmth. One size fits most, as a result of the lateral give, but there are tips for changing the size within each pattern. These mitts are made using two circular needles, and a heavy weight sock yarn.
They require under 1 skein of most heavy socks yarns. The one pictured here was made with under one skein of Handmaiden/Fleece Artists Casbah yarn, in colorway, Ocean. However, any heavy sock yarn or sport weight yarn will work for this pattern. They are knit on a 2.5mm needle, with a gauge of 6 sts/inch
Skill Level: Intermediate, assuming good working knowledge of cabling.
