Product Details

I have a brand new pattern for little-sized mittens called Little Waiting for Winter Mittens.

I wrote a blog post explaining how I did the striped Noro Kureyon mittens in the second photo here.

This is a fun and fast basic worsted weight mitten pattern. It is that go-to pattern to make the perfect fitting mitten for just about anyone in the family.

The pattern requires 100 yards for the small size, 150 yards for the medium and 200 yards for the large size mittens. The fingerless mitts take less. The samples are knit in Noro Kureyon, Freshisle Fibers Suffolk Wool (watermelon striping), and my own handspun from Dyeabolical Yarns and Fiber. A suggested substitute yarn is shown below.

The instructions are clear and simple. The increase for the thumb gusset is a done by using a simple backward loop cast on. There is a great video tutorial for this increase by Paula of the Knitting Pipeline right here:
