Rain Cloud Mittens

RAIN CLOUD MITTENS - FREE KNITTING PATTERN

Introducing the delightful RAIN CLOUD MITTENS, a charming accessory perfect for keeping little hands warm during those brisk, rainy days! These adorable mittens feature sweet little rain clouds that will surely brighten up any gloomy weather. The mittens are designed with extra long cuffs, offering versatility; they can be worn either folded up for a snug fit or folded down and tucked inside coat sleeves to prevent them from slipping off.

The construction is simple and approachable, as the mittens are worked flat on straight needles from the bottom up, ensuring an enjoyable knitting experience. Once completed, the mittens are seamed together, providing a neat finish. The adorable rain cloud design is skillfully added using the duplicate stitch method, my absolute favorite way to embellish knitwear! This technique allows the mittens to be knitted in a classic plain grey, while the charming cloud and rain drops are then intricately embroidered on top at the end, giving your mittens a unique and personalized touch.

This pattern includes a variety of sizes to fit your little ones: sizes 0-6M and 6-12M are designed without thumbs, making them easy to wear and perfect for infants. For toddlers, sizes 1-2Y and 2-3Y feature thumbs for added warmth and functionality. To top it all off, the mitten tops are shaped using mirrored decreases for a polished and professional look, ensuring you can create a stunning pair of mittens that will be cherished.

Whether you're a beginner looking to tackle your first knitwear project or an experienced knitter seeking a quick yet rewarding knit, these RAIN CLOUD MITTENS are an excellent choice.
