I Love A Theme Fingerless Mitts
Introducing the I Love A Theme Fingerless Mitts, a delightful knitting pattern designed to keep your hands cozy while still allowing for mobility. These mitts feature a charming combination of a simple ribbing and a delicate minimal lace pattern, along with a generously long cuff that effectively keeps out the biting winter wind. They were thoughtfully crafted to utilize leftover yarn from my Lyra gradient set, originally used in a cardigan sample, ensuring that not a single ounce of beautiful yarn goes to waste. The name pays homage to my dear friend Dorothy, who truly loves a theme. In addition to the mitts, there are matching hat and cowl patterns available to complete your winter wardrobe.
Finished Size: The mitts measure 5 inches in the cuff and hand when unstretched, and can stretch up to 9 inches for extra comfort.
Yarn: This pattern is designed for Space Cadet Lyra, a luxurious 100% Superwash Merino yarn, which comes in a generous 270 yards per 100g skein. The sample used for this pattern is knit in the Perilous linking sweater set colorway and requires approximately 150 yards, divided among 5 stunning colors, allowing for a vibrant, gradient effect.
Needles: You will need a set of 5 double-pointed needles or a 16” circular needle in size 5 US (3.75 mm), or any size needed to achieve the correct gauge for this pattern.
Gauge: For best results, aim for a gauge of 20 stitches and 28 rows per 4 inches in blocked stockinette, all while knitting in the round. Adjust as necessary to ensure a perfect fit.
Whether you're looking to gift these stylish mitts to a friend or keep them for yourself, the I Love A Theme Fingerless Mitts are a practical and fashionable accessory for the cold months.
