Embrace Me Mitts
Introducing our Luxurious Crossover Twist Fingerless Mitts knitting pattern, designed to blend style with functionality. These elegant mitts, crafted from sumptuous bulky yarn, feature a sophisticated Crossover Twist stitch pattern that elevates their aesthetic. With two sizes available (S/M and M/L), these fingerless mitts offer an atypical thumb gusset for a natural, comfortable fit that's both chic and practical, making them the perfect accessory for any wardrobe. Techniques & Skills Used: This pattern incorporates a variety of knitting techniques including cable cast-on (CO), knit/purl stitches, increasing and decreasing, and working seamlessly in the round. Size: Available in S/M (6.5” length and 7” palm circumference) and M/L (7.5” length and 8” palm circumference), these measurements are taken flat and unstretched for optimal sizing. Yarn: We recommend Shalimar Yarns Breathless Cush, a luxurious blend of 75% superwash merino wool, 15% cashmere, and 10% silk. Each skein provides 145 yards (132m/114g) of pure softness, with the size M/L showcased in the stunning colorway Embrace Me. You'll need just 1 skein or approximately 90 (100) yards of chunky weight yarn to complete this project. Other Materials Needed: Prepare your knitting tools! You'll need US 9 (5.5mm) double-pointed needles (dpns) or a 32” circular needle if you prefer the Magic Loop method, along with a size that matches your gauge. Additionally, gather two stitch markers, a stitch holder, and a yarn needle to assist in your crafting. Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 16 stitches and 22 rows over 4 inches in both the Crossover Twist stitch pattern and stockinette stitch, ensuring to block your work for the best results. Whether you are looking for a cozy accessory for chilly days or a fashionable gift for a loved one, our Crossover Twist Fingerless Mitts pattern is a delightful choice that combines luxury with comfort.
