Snow Squall Mitts

These beautiful mid-forearm length mitts are expertly crafted in the round, starting from the stylish upper ribbed cuff and continuing down to the elegant hand opening. Adorned with a stunning beaded snowflake pattern on the back of the hands, the design elegantly flows up the arm, adding a touch of winter charm while keeping you warm. The palms of the mitts are worked in a comfortable 2/1 ribbing for a snug fit. We’ve thoughtfully shaped the thumb with a gusset, ensuring ease of movement and comfort, and the thumb stitches are also knitted in ribbing for a cohesive look.

For this delightful knitting project, you will need approximately 125-175 yards of Alpakka Lin yarn to create these mitts as specified in the pattern. Additionally, you will require a total of 66 size 6 silver-lined crystal beads to complete the beaded snowflake design. When purchasing beads, we recommend allowing for 10-20% extra to accommodate any loss or breakage during your crafting process. Beads are skillfully applied using the crochet-hook method, so we also suggest having a small gauge crochet hook (size 12 or 14) on hand to facilitate this technique.

Whether you’re a seasoned knitter looking for a new challenge or a beginner eager to expand your skills, this adorable mitt pattern is perfect for you. It’s not just a great way to keep your hands warm in cold weather, but it also makes for a thoughtful gift for friends and family.
