Cloud Peak Mitts
Yarn: This project requires sport weight yarn, with an estimated yardage of approximately 155 (165, 180) yards / 140 (150, 165) meters. Choose a yarn that suits your desired texture and color palette.
Needles: Use US size 4 (3.5 mm) double-pointed needles (DPNs) or any preferred method for knitting in small circumferences, such as magic loop or two-at-a-time circular knitting. This flexibility allows you to customize your knitting experience.
Gauge: Achieve the perfect fit by knitting to the gauge of 28 stitches and 32 rows = 4 inches / 10 centimeters in stockinette stitch. Remember that a swatch will ensure your finished item fits just right!
Finished Sizes: This pattern accommodates various hand sizes with finished palm circumferences of 6 (7, 8) inches / 15 (18, 20) centimeters. It is designed to comfortably fit hands with palm circumferences up to 7 (8, 9) inches / 18 (20.5, 23) centimeters, making it a versatile choice for different users.
Notions: You will also need a tapestry needle for finishing, a 0.75 mm crochet hook (or any preferred tool) for adding beads, and approximately 95 (105, 120) size 6/0 beads to embellish your project. Additionally, gather 5 stitch markers—2 in color A for the Cloud Peak pattern panel, 2 in color B for the thumb gusset, and 1 marker to indicate the end of the round (EoR).
