Product Details
These fair isle mitts are a quick knit, using just 4 shades of Jamieson’s Shetland Spindrift 4ply wool yarn. The pattern is suitable for knitters who are comfortable working stranded colourwork in the round. Shown in shades Shaela, Black, Lomond and Eesit.
The mitts are worked bottom up in the round with thumb gussets, and feature X & O motifs on the top of the hand, with an intuitive one-by-one filler stitch on the palm side. There are charts for left and right mitts.
Sizing: to fit an average size woman’s hand 7-7.5” (18-19cm).
Skills/Techniques: stranded colourwork; knitting in the round; reading charts; keeping track of stitch numbers (for thumb gusset); increases and decreases; casting on in the middle of a round; yarn dominance.
Needles: 2.5mm, 2.75mm, 3mm and 3.25mm, either circulars or double pointed needles. If there is no direct US equivalent, the mitts can be knit with US sizes 2 & 3. However the range of sizes called for gives more control over the final fit.
