Essential Needles and Materials: To create these stunning mittens, you will need 100% merino wool (100 g = 360 m or 3.5 oz = 394 yds). You will require either 30 g, 40 g, or 50 g depending on your size choice. For needles, use a double-pointed needle (DPN) set in sizes 2 mm (US0) and 3 mm (US2.5), or other suitable needle sizes to achieve the correct gauge. (Note: DPNs can be substituted with circular needles while using the magic loop method). Additionally, you'll need four stitch markers, a tapestry needle, and a stitch holder or a piece of auxiliary yarn for easy handling.
Gauge Information: Achieve the perfect gauge of 30 stitches and 40 rows/rounds, equating to a swatch size of 10x10 cm (4x4 in) in stockinette stitch, using 3 mm (US2.5) needles, after blocking and stretching. Proper gauge is essential for ensuring that your mittens turn out just right!
