Do-Sa-Dos

Introducing the "Do-sa-do" fingerless mitts pattern, a charming project that brings the spirit of square dancing right to your knitting needles! This delightful pattern is inspired by the classic square dancing call, where two dancers elegantly circle around each other without changing their facing direction. The term "Do-sa-do" originates from French, meaning "back to back," perfectly encapsulating the graceful motion of these intricately designed mitts.

In this unique design, the central cable dances around not one, but two side cables, creating a beautiful intertwining pattern that mimics the dynamic movement of dancers. The name also cleverly nods to Malabrigo Dos, one of my all-time favorite yarns, ensuring that your finished pieces will not only look stunning but feel luxurious as well.

This fingerless mitts pattern is tailored to fit snugly on an average-sized hand, with two convenient length options available to accommodate different preferences. To ensure the best fit for your hands, be sure to check your gauge before starting. For those with larger hands or those who prefer a more generous fit, consider moving up one needle size for added comfort.

The pattern is thoughtfully designed with both charted and written instructions, making it accessible for knitters of all skill levels. Whether you're a beginner looking to enhance your knitting repertoire or an experienced knitter seeking a fun and engaging project, the "Do-sa-do" fingerless mitts are sure to delight. Get ready to showcase your love for dance and knitting with this beautifully crafted accessory!
