Inspired by flocked wallpaper and ornate fabrics, these mittens have
large areas of color, so are suited to both bold and subtle color
combinations. Optional Swiss darned accents add a fanciful touch. The
single-color braid adds texture without detracting from the bold
patterning. The picot hem is a delicate addition and may be substituted
with a plain turned hem for more rustic types.
REQUIREMENTS
It is expected that you know how to knit in the round and are
familiar with placement of stitches on your needles of choice. Be
familiar with the long-tail and backward loop cast–ons, increasing and
decreasing, picking up stitches, working from charts in the round, and
stranded knitting.
SIZE
Adult S (M, L)
TO FIT
7.5" (8.25", 9") [19 cm (21 cm, 23 cm)] palm circumference. If you
are between sizes, knit the closer size. If you wish to forgo the
lining, choose the size that is approximately 1/2" larger in
circumference than your hand.
ACTUAL MEASUREMENT
8.5" (9.25", 10") [21.5 cm (23.5 cm, 25.5 cm)] circumference, and
9.5" (10", 11") [24 cm (25.5 cm, 28 cm)] long.
GAUGE
28 (26, 24) sts. and 30 (28, 26) rows = 4" [10cm] in colorwork
pattern. Gauge is critical for proper fit!
NEEDLES
3 (4, 5) US [3.25 (3.5, 3.75) mm], or size needed to get gauge.
Pattern may be knit on double points, a long circular for magic loop, or
