Gauge: 10 stitches = 4'' in stocking stitch
Size: One size, 15cm x 20cm circumference
Notation:
k = knit
p = purl
p = purl
CO = cast on
Directions:
Mitts (Makes 2):
Tip: I knitted both mitts at the same time using yarn from the outside and from the centre of the ball of yarn so that I could get them as long as possible with one skein. Feel free not to do this though!
CO 19 stitches. Work every row as follows:
k1 p1 *k2 p1* to last two stitches, k2.
When mitts are 15cm long (or as long as desired) bind off. Sew the two edges together leaving a hole for the thumb. Weave in loose ends.

Thank you! Hehe, yeah they took about an hour to make, super quick!
ReplyDeleteIf I wanted to use size 8 (US) needles instead, how may stitches would I need to cast on and would the rest of the pattern be the same as above?
ReplyDeleteHi Silpionelf,
ReplyDeleteI would say you'd need about twice as many stitches. I would try casting on 37 and after a bit try stretching it around your hand to see how it fits. The rest of the pattern would be exactly the same.
Thanks very much for the question!
Great thanks! :) I'll try it out...now to pick the color hehe.
ReplyDeleteFantastic, let me know how you get on!
