Blooming Snowdrop Fingerless mitts

Discover the perfect knitting pattern for elegant fingerless mitts, designed for your everyday lifestyle. Available in three sizes, these stylish gloves are ideal for keeping your hands warm while allowing freedom of movement. The mitts are worked in the round, making them an engaging project suitable for intermediate knitters.

MATERIALS: For this fingerless mitts pattern, use a soft white DK yarn composed of 20% wool and 80% acrylic. You'll need 1 skein of 100 g/300 m to complete this versatile accessory.

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS: The mittens come in three sizes: Size S has a hand circumference of 7” - 8” (18 - 20 cm), Size M fits 8” – 9” (20 - 22 cm), and Size L accommodates hands measuring 9” – 10” (22 – 24 cm). If you find yourself between sizes, I recommend selecting the smaller size, as the mitts will stretch with wear.

NEEDLES: Use 1 pair of 4 mm (US6)(UK8) double-pointed needles or a long circular needle for the magic loop method to craft your fingerless mitts.

KNITTING GAUGE: To achieve the perfect fit, ensure your gauge is 22 stitches and 30 rows per 10 x 10 cm (4” x 4”) in stocking stitch, using 4 mm needles. This will ensure that your mitts turn out the right size and shape.

STITCHES & TECHNIQUES TO KNOW: Familiarize yourself with essential techniques such as the long tail cast-on method, picking up stitches, knitting, purling, casting off, and working from a knitting chart. Mastering these techniques will help you create a beautiful finished product.

DIFFICULTY LEVEL: This project is classified as INTERMEDIATE, making it a great challenge for those looking to improve their knitting skills.
