Glacial Lake Mittens
Introducing a versatile full mitten design that seamlessly transforms into a fingerless mitten! As a small-handed knitter who often finds most store-bought mittens to be overly floppy and uncomfortable, I've created this pattern in two specially tailored sizes to ensure a perfect fit. Whether you're looking for warmth during chilly outdoor adventures or simply want the flexibility of fingerless gloves, this pattern caters to both needs. Additionally, I've included multiple customization options to help you adjust the dimensions of the mitten to your liking.
This pattern is crafted using only the finest Shetland wool, renowned for its ability to soften and bloom beautifully after the first wash. However, any fingering weight wool will work beautifully for this project. The intricate patterns and rich colors featured in this design are inspired by the stunning blues and lush greens of the glacial lakes deep within the Canadian Shield, beautifully contrasted by the soft green tones of surrounding pines.
Materials required: 4g of Seabright, 4g of Surf, 6g of Rye, 5g of Moorgrass, 16g of Dewdrop, 2g of Cloud, and 2g of Eucalyptus. If you're looking for substitutes, consider using Verdigris as a replacement for Eucalyptus, China Blue instead of Cloud, and Pebble in place of Rye. The sample shown features the original pattern colorways. All substitute colors are selected from shades available at Lovecrafts, ensuring you have access to a wide range of beautiful yarns for your knitting project.
This fingerless mitten pattern is a must-have for knitters of all levels who appreciate both function and style. Download this unique knitting pattern today and make your own cozy mittens that perfectly blend creativity and practicality!
