Warm Winter Mittens - Vestavind Knitting Pattern

Introducing the Vestavind mittens, your go-to accessory for staying warm during the cold winter months! These beautifully crafted mittens are knitted in a traditional Norwegian design, bringing a touch of Nordic charm to your winter wardrobe.

The featured mittens are expertly knitted using Dale Lanolin DK wool yarn, known for its warmth and durability. However, should you wish to explore other options, similar yarns like Cascade 220 make an excellent alternative. We encourage you to express your creativity by selecting the yarn and colors that resonate with your personal style. Feel free to follow the color suggestions provided in the pattern or choose DK wool yarns and shades of your choice!

When it comes to knitting needles, the recommended sizes are merely guidelines. It’s essential to check your gauge by knitting a sample swatch before starting your project. If your swatch displays fewer stitches in 10 cm than the specified gauge, simply opt for a smaller needle size. Conversely, if your swatch has more stitches, increase your needle size for optimal results.

This pattern is designed in a single size, perfect for most adult hands. That said, you can easily tweak the fit by changing your needle size just half a size up or down. If you prefer mittens that are a bit longer or shorter, feel free to adjust the length before beginning the decrease section. Your customization can make these mittens truly one-of-a-kind!

For your reference, here are the specifications when using size 3 needles: Full length measures approximately 30 cm, cuff length is 9 cm, width is 11 cm, and the length of the thumb is around 7 cm. Make your winter stylish and snug with the Vestavind mittens, the perfect hand-knit accessory for those frosty days!
