Deliria Nervosa
Introducing our delightful cozy cuffs and mittens, designed as companion pieces to the chic Amor Delira hat, which draws inspiration from the captivating YA novel “Delirium” by Lauren Oliver. These beautifully crafted knit accessories feature intricate cabled ribbing that gracefully transitions into a mesmerizing wavy lace pattern on the back of the mittens, while the palm is worked in a smooth stockinette stitch for added comfort. The all-around cuffs are enhanced with the same stunning lace design, making this pattern an excellent choice for knitters seeking a challenging project that’s perfect for any occasion, from cozy nights in to stylish outings.
The cuffs are skillfully constructed using two different needle sizes, which accentuates the charming flare of the lace, while the mittens are knitted at a tighter gauge to ensure optimal warmth and comfort during colder months. Both the cuff and mitten patterns are provided in an easy-to-follow chart format, making it a great experience for visual knitters. The mitten sample was expertly crafted using Kettle Yarn Co's Lomond Aran yarn in the beautiful "Ginger" colorway, while the cuff sample showcases the lovely Storied Yarn Bo Peep Worsted in "Waiting for Something to Happen," adding a touch of elegance to your knitwear collection.
This knitting pattern requires a range of skills, including knitting, purling, increasing, decreasing, cabling, and lace knitting, making it suitable for adventurous knitters looking to enhance their skill set. The gauge specifications for the cuffs are 19 stitches and 27 rows over 4 inches (10 cm) in pattern with larger needles, while the mittens require a gauge of 21 stitches and 26 rows over the same measurement with smaller needles. Knit your way to stylish warmth this season with our cozy cuffs and mittens!
