Falling leaves mittens

YARN: For this beautiful project, we recommend using YARN Rauma “Finullgarn,” offering 191.0 yards (175.0 m) per 50g skein. You'll need 1 skein of colour 401 (natural white, the background color) and 1 skein of colour 4197 (mustard or purple, the foreground color). Alternatively, you can choose any non-superwash fingering weight yarn (100% wool) for your project. Other excellent yarn suggestions include Jamieson & Smith's “2 Ply Jumper Weight” and Jamieson's of Shetland “Shetland Spindrift.” Both options maintain the authenticity of your knitted piece while ensuring warmth and comfort.

NEEDLES: To create this stunning design, use 2mm circular knitting needles, preferably 80cm or longer for the magic loop technique, or double-pointed needles (dpns) for seamless knitting.

NOTIONS: Don't forget to gather your knitting essentials! You'll need 1 stitch marker to help track your rounds and a tapestry needle for weaving in ends and finishing touches.

GAUGE: Achieve an impeccable fit with the following gauge: for a Woman’s medium (11cm width), aim for 36 stitches = 10cm in colorwork knitted in the round; for a Woman’s small (10cm width), work on 38 stitches = 10cm in colorwork in the round. Remember, you can easily adjust the size of your project by opting for a smaller or larger gauge, allowing for personal customization to suit different body types.

SIZE: This pattern is designed for a Woman’s medium but can be effortlessly adjusted to fit small or large sizes by altering the gauge. This ensures that every knitter can create the perfect piece tailored to individual preferences.
