Meander Mitten
If you're captivated by Greek architecture and classicism, you'll love this unique knitting pattern for mittens. The design features a beautiful round-meander pattern on the mittens, paired with a stylish checked pattern for the palm section. When you knit both mittens in the same yarn colors, you can hold them together to create a stunning visual effect where the meander pattern seamlessly flows from one mitten to the other.
This pattern is designed specifically for the magic loop method, but it is also easily adaptable for those who prefer using double-pointed needles (DPN). Each colorwork section is provided as clear charts, making it simple to follow along and create your masterpiece.
Size: Available in Women's sizes Small, Medium, and Large (6, 7, 8 inches / 15, 18, 20 cm hand circumference) to fit a variety of hand sizes.
Needles: Use 3.5mm (US 4) and 4.0mm (US 6) needles for working in the round, ensuring a comfortable and cohesive knitting experience.
Yarn: This pattern requires sportweight yarn in both a main and contrast color, with 100 yards needed for each color to complete the mittens.
Difficulty: This project is perfect for enthusiastic knitters who are familiar with working in the round, stranded colorwork, and increasing techniques within colorwork. It’s a fantastic way to enhance your knitting skills while creating a functional and fashionable accessory.
Whether you're looking to expand your knitting repertoire or create a thoughtful gift for someone special, these mittens beautifully blend artistry and warmth. So grab your needles, select your favorite colors, and get started on this delightful knitting project today!
