Thrummed Mittens-Aran-Adult
Introducing our wonderfully warm mittens, originally inspired by the traditional knitwear of Newfoundland. These unique mittens are crafted with tufts of roving ingeniously knitted into the fabric, resulting in a soft and inviting texture. Over time, the roving will mat lightly, creating a cozy warm inner cocoon that feels luxurious against your skin. I affectionately call them "Uggs for my hands," and once you try them, you’ll understand why!
The adult mitten pattern is available in two sizes—small and medium—but offers flexibility for customization. You can easily adjust the size by adding or subtracting 4 stitches and modifying the length to suit your hand dimensions perfectly.
This pattern is also suitable for advanced beginners. If you're comfortable knitting in the round, either using double-pointed needles or the magic loop method, you’ll find this project enjoyable and rewarding.
We recommend using aran weight yarn, with a gauge of 4 to 4.5 stitches per inch, to achieve the best result. The result is a beautiful pair of mittens that not only keeps your hands warm but also adds a touch of handmade charm to your winter wardrobe.
These mittens make wonderful gifts for loved ones, providing warmth and comfort during the colder months. Whether for friends, family, or even as a treat for yourself, they’re sure to be cherished.
Happy knitting! I can’t wait to hear how much you love these cozy mittens and see your creative versions. Share your finished projects and any customizations you’ve made!
