Cozy Cable Mittens
Welcome to the Cozy Cable Mittens knitting pattern, where unique style meets cozy warmth! These delightful chunky mittens feature a stunning horseshoe cable design that elegantly travels up the front. Whether you prefer the traditional method or modern techniques, our pattern provides comprehensive instructions for both Double Point Needles (DPN) and the Magic Loop method. Ideal for very advanced beginners, this project will enhance your knitting skills while resulting in a fashionable accessory for the colder months.
Designed specifically for women, these mittens boast a finished circumference of 8 inches, making them a comfortable fit for most. To achieve the perfect look and feel, you'll need to work with a gauge of 10 stitches per 4 inches over stockinette stitch. This ensures your mittens will not only fit well but also provide excellent warmth and durability.
**Suggested Needles:**
- For Double Point Needle method: Use US 11 (8mm) and US 13 (9mm) DPNs.
- For Magic Loop method: Utilize US 11 (8mm) and US 13 (9mm) 32” circular needles or longer.
**Yarn Recommendations:**
For the best results, choose a chunky weight yarn with approximately 85 yards required for this pattern. We recommend luxurious options like Malabrigo Rasta, Cozy Sexy Wool, or the popular Woolease Thick & Quick. These yarns will not only provide excellent stitch definition for your cables but also ensure your mittens are soft and warm.
Our user-friendly instructions guide you through each step of the knitting process, allowing you to create a beautiful pair of mittens that you'll cherish wearing. Plus, with both Double Point and Magic Loop methods presented, you can choose the knitting technique that best suits your preference.
