Mitts Aflame
Introducing **Mitts Aflame**, the perfect addition to coordinate with both Beanie Aflame and Beret Aflame! Whether you're crafting a delightful accessory set as a thoughtful gift or treating yourself to something special, these mitts are designed to impress. The pattern is tailored to fit a woman's medium hand, provided you knit to the specified tension of **7 stitches and 10 rows per 1”/2.5cm** of stocking stitch after light blocking. These stylish mitts are meant to be worn with slight negative ease for a snug, trendy fit, featuring a beautiful and stretchy lace motif along with a thumb gusset that ensures comfortable and easy wear.
This knitting pattern offers **both written and charted instructions** for the lace design, allowing you the flexibility to choose your preferred method. While using charts is not necessary to complete the pattern, many knitters appreciate the visual guidance they provide.
To create your stunning Mitts Aflame, you will need approximately **150 yards of fingering weight yarn** and **2.5mm (US 1.5) knitting needles** designed for working in the round. Additionally, to help keep your project organized, gather **5 stitch markers**—ideally two matching pairs of different colors and one single marker. You'll also need a stitch holder or waste yarn for managing stitches, along with a darning needle for finishing touches.
Before you start, ensure you have the skills needed to work in the round, perform common increases and decreases, and confidently handle either charted or written instructions for simple lace techniques. With Mitts Aflame, you can create a fashionable accessory that not only compliments your style but also enhances your knitting repertoire. Get ready to warm up your hands in style!
