Shall We Mitts Full and Fingerless - Worsted
Discover the joy of knitting with this comprehensive pattern for a classic pair of mittens, designed specifically for warmth and comfort. Featuring a stylish ribbed cuff, an innovative thumb gusset for ease of wear, and a fitted, tapered hand, these mittens are perfect for keeping your hands cozy during the colder months.
These exquisitely warm mittens are crafted in worsted weight yarn, showcased in a stunning purple hue using Lang Yak, and require 1 (2, 2) balls. If you prefer using the highly accessible Cascade 220 yarn, you’ll need just 1 (1, 1) skein to complete this beautiful project.
If you want to get creative, we also encourage the use of fingering weight yarns, held double, to achieve unique textures and colors. The visually striking variegated mittens depicted in the image utilize Mirasol Hachito. When opting for doubled yarn, make sure you have 240 (300, 370) yards/220 (275, 340) meters on hand to finish your mittens successfully.
This mittens pattern is designed for knitting in the round, incorporating a practical thumb gusset that enhances usability. You can easily knit them on double-pointed needles, two circulars, or using the magic loop technique—whatever suits your knitting style best!
Each stitch of this pattern carries a nostalgic charm, inspired by the handmade mittens I received every year as a child from a grandmother who always had knitting projects on every horizontal surface in her home. It's this rich heritage of knitting that inspires me to share my patterns with fellow enthusiasts and keeps the craft alive!
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced knitter, this mitten pattern offers a delightful and fulfilling experience that will keep your hands warm and stylish all winter long. Start your next knitting adventure today and create a pair of mittens that you can cherish for years to come!
