Zebra Mittens

Introducing Our Zebra Mittens Knitting Pattern – These luxurious Zebra Mittens are crafted from high-quality Alpaca Merino yarn, ensuring they are not only incredibly soft but also exceptionally warm thanks to their stranded colourwork construction. Perfect for those chilly days, these mittens will keep your hands cozy and stylish!

Designed to accommodate hand sizes up to 8cm (3.2") wide and 18cm (7.1") long (measuring from the base of the hand to the tip of the middle finger), our Zebra Mittens are both practical and fashionable. The flexibility of the pattern allows for easy customization—should you wish to adjust the length of the mitten cuff or body, simply work more or fewer rounds according to your preferences. Please note, if you choose to extend either the cuff or mitten body by more than 2 rounds for each mitten, you will need to purchase additional yarn beyond the standard requirement of 2 x 25g balls.

The recommended gauge for this pattern is 28 stitches to 30 rows, specifically over the stranded zebra pattern. Should you prefer to use a different yarn, ensure it has a gauge of 22 stitches to 30 rows listed on the ball band for optimal fit and texture.

For this delightful knitting project, you will need a total of 2 x 25g balls of Rowan Alpaca Merino yarn: one in the elegant shade Saxon (101) and another in the sophisticated shade Stamford (111). Additionally, you will require a 4.5mm (US 7) circular needle, measuring 30-40cm (12-16") in length, or one set of double-pointed needles in the same size for seamless knitting.

These Zebra Mittens not only make a fabulous addition to your winter wardrobe but also serve as a thoughtful, handmade gift for loved ones.
