Treillage Mitts

Discover the beauty of texture in your knitting with this simple yet stunning knit-purl mitts pattern. By incorporating a couple of slipped stitches, this design elevates the traditional knit-purl framework into a rich, waffle-like texture that adds depth and visual interest to your project. The pattern is thoughtfully provided both in written format and as an easy-to-follow chart, catering to all knitting preferences.

Sizing Note: These delightful mitts are modeled on hands that measure approximately 8 inches around the palm. If your hand size significantly deviates from this measurement, whether larger or smaller, consider adjusting your needle size—going up or down one size will help you change the gauge slightly and achieve a better fit for your unique hands.

Skills Needed: This project requires knowledge of knitting in the round, how to perform a long-tail cast on, and making M1 increases. It’s a wonderful opportunity for knitters to enhance their skills while creating a cozy accessory.

Yarn Requirements: For this project, we recommend using Knit Picks Mighty Stitch, a delightful blend of 20% Superwash Wool and 80% Acrylic, which provides both warmth and durability. It comes in a generous 208 yards per 100-gram skein. The featured Teal Mitts were crafted using the gorgeous Spruce color and required just 120 yards, weighing in at approximately 57 grams.

This pattern is the perfect addition to any knitter’s collection, whether you’re looking to make a thoughtful gift or treat yourself. Enjoy the process of creation while embracing the unique texture of these mitts!
