Woolgatherer

These mittens, knit in sport weight yarn, feature colorwork motifs that are relatively simple yet engaging, for new and experienced knitters alike. WOOLGATHERER is two designs in one—it includes colorwork charts for two different mitten backs (with both mittens styles using the same motif on the palms). This pattern is written for one size, but can easily be adapted to a variety of smaller or larger sizes by adjusting the gauge with different yarn weights and/or needle sizes. There are also instructions for knitting fingerless mitts, great for autumn and spring, or when your hands need just a little extra warmth.

27 stitches and 29 rows = 4 inches of stranded colorwork (with finished mittens measuring 8 inches in circumference and 10.5 inches in length.) For larger or smaller mittens, simply adjust needle size or yarn weight.
