The mitts make fantastic gifts, so we're doing the class just before the winter holidays.
Pattern provided in class: This is a "beginner plus" project. The mitts are worked sideways, the garter ridges simulate ribs. Short rows are used to make the hand wider than the cuff. The thumb opening is worked like a large buttonhole - stitches are bound off on one row, then an equal number is cast on over the gap on the following row. Instead of a seam, the last row of knitting is worked together with the stitches picked up from the cast-on row using a three needle bind-off. The instructions conveniently cover three gauges of yarn (4, 5, and 6 stitches to the inch) and three adult sizes.“
Finished Measurements: About 6 (6.5, 7)“ hand circumference, measured around the base of the fingers. To fit woman’s small/medium (woman’s medium.large, man’s small/medium) hand.
Yarn:
- 4 stitches per inch: Bulky/Chunky
- 5 stitches per inch: Worsted
- 6 stitches per inch: DK/Sport
Needles:
-
One set needles in size necessary to obtain desired gauge.
-
Optional but helpful: A single needle several sizes smaller for picking up stitches along the cast-on edge.
