Utilizing the same fun and engaging stitches featured in the popular Pomona Beanie, this light weight mitt/mittens pattern is perfect for matching your winter wear! The pattern provides instructions for both fingerless mitts and full coverage mitts, ensuring you have options for any weather. Plus, it’s easier than it appears—working with just one color at a time simplifies the process for knitters at an intermediate skill level!
Please note that this pattern does NOT include the super bulky version of the Pomona Mitts, so be sure to check if you're looking for something more substantial. It's essential to keep in mind that there are many variations in yarn thickness, even among yarns labeled as the same weight category. Always check your gauge and make any necessary adjustments for the best fit!
Materials Required: You will need 2 contrasting color yarns: Main Color—approximately 70-100 yards (this will vary based on yarn weight) and Contrasting Color—about 50-65 yards (also depending on yarn weight).
For Worsted Weight Yarn: Use US 4/3.5mm Double Pointed Needles (DPNs).
For Light Bulky Yarn: Use US 7/4.5mm DPNs or US 8/5mm DPNs.
We do not recommend using the magic loop method for this specific pattern, as DPNs provide the best results for these stylish mittens. Get started on your next cozy knitting project today and make a statement with your handmade accessories!
