Auricula floral fingerless mitts
Discover a delightful PDF knitting pattern for a charming pair of fingerless mitts/gloves featuring stunning auricula flowers on the front of each mitt. Perfect for adding a touch of floral elegance to your winter wardrobe, these mitts are sure to keep your hands warm while allowing for full finger mobility. The palms of the mitts are designed with a simple plain stitch, ensuring comfort and functionality.
In the provided photo, the mitts are beautifully knitted using Rowan Pure Wool 4ply in a classic black, making the vibrant floral motifs pop. The flower heads are crafted in a lovely palette of pale mauve, dark mauve, and pinky mauve, adorned with yellow tweed-mix centers. Meanwhile, the stems and leaves are depicted in an appealing combination of light lime and olive green mixed 4ply wool, creating a delightful contrast that enhances the overall design.
The intricate floral motifs are knitted using the intarsia technique, which allows for vibrant color blending throughout the design. For those who prefer a different approach, these mitts can also be knitted in a straightforward plain stocking stitch, with the flowers added afterward using the duplicate stitch method – a great option for knitters of all skill levels.
This comprehensive pattern includes detailed charts for both the left and right mitts, along with clear, typed knitting instructions to guide you through every step of the crafting process. The approximate measurements for the mitts are: 3.5 inches wide (unstretched and not counting the thumb), 5 inches long from the top of the ribbing to the cast-off edge, and a 1-inch long ribbing. For those looking to customize, the mitts can easily be adjusted to be slightly larger or smaller by changing the needle size, making it a versatile pattern for all hand sizes.
Unleash your creativity with this beautiful fingerless glove pattern and enjoy indulging in the art of knitting. Whether you’re making them as a thoughtful gift or treating yourself, these auricula flower mitts are sure to impress! (c) Twisted Classics
