Frosting

When frost settles on the windowpanes, there’s nothing cozier than curling up with a good book and some hot cocoa. However, if you have to venture outside, these fingerless mitts—aptly named Frosting—are the perfect solution to keep that snug, warm feeling even when Jack Frost comes nipping at your nose. Crafted seamlessly in high-quality worsted weight yarn, these mittens work up quickly, making them an ideal project for knitters of all skill levels. Designed to fit loosely, they provide the ultimate comfort reminiscent of your favorite old sweater.

The Frosting mitts are started at the cuff and knit in the round, allowing for a smooth and enjoyable crafting experience. The design cleverly splits to knit the thumbhole flat before rejoining to finish the project in the round. This thoughtful construction minimizes any gapping at the thumb, thanks to the unique overlap created by strategic increases. This feature also enables the mitts to comfortably accommodate a wide variety of hand shapes and sizes, ensuring a perfect fit for everyone.

What truly sets these fingerless mitts apart is the beautiful branching cable pattern, reminiscent of delicate fern frost. This intricate design is not only visually striking but also engaging enough to keep your attention as you knit. Yet, it remains simple enough that you can easily put it down mid-repeat without losing your place. Whether you’re a beginner looking for a delightful project or an experienced knitter seeking a relaxing knit, Frosting fingerless mitts offer a wonderful blend of warmth, comfort, and style.
