Autumn Twist Mitts

This delightful pattern creates a snug pair of fingerless mittens that effortlessly fit into a coat pocket or bag when not in use, yet provide cosy warmth when the cold strikes! The ribbing on the palm side, combined with elegant cabling on the back of the hand, results in an elastic fabric that hugs your hands perfectly. I personally dislike wearing baggy fingerless mittens because they can allow cold draughts to infiltrate and steal away your warmth! The stretchy cast-on and bind-off techniques included in this pattern are designed to maintain the elasticity of the fabric, making it easy to put the mittens on and take them off whenever you wish. The combination of ribbing and cabling not only enhances the visual appeal of the mittens but also creates a slightly denser fabric that helps keep you warm, especially given that we’re using a thinner fingering weight/4ply yarn. For those who are new to cabling, this pattern is an excellent first project for you to practice a simple four-stitch cable. You’ll find that it's easy to follow, ensuring that you can focus on perfecting your technique while showcasing your knitting skills. Don't miss out on the chance to craft a stylish and functional accessory that can elevate your winter wardrobe!
