Last Minute Mitts!


I just realized I never posted this pattern on my blog.  What was I thinking?  Well...here it is.

This is a simple straight forward pattern for fingerless mitts.
The instructions are written only, as a chart really isn’t necessary.
They are a quick and easy knit, and can usually be finished in one to two evenings. They were designed as a last minute gift for my mom, and she loves them!


$ 1.49 US
The pattern is up for sale on Ravelry here

Materials:
1 skein of Joann's Sensations Kashmira, OR approximately 140 yards of any sportweight yarn that will get gauge
US 3 (3.25mm) needles (for your preferred method of knitting in the round)
US 4 (3.5mm) needles (for your preferred method of knitting in the round)
Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

 
Gauge:
6.5 stitches = 1 inch in Stockinette in the round, using US 4 needles

Size: 
Average Woman's Hand

Skills: 
You’ll need to be able to knit cables, knit in the round and pick up stitches.

Just about any sport weight yarn will do. I used almost exactly half of a skein of Joann's Sensations Kashmira yarn, which comes to approximately 140yards.  If you are going to substitute with another yarn and you think you might run out, please be sure to get a little extra.  Always best to have too much, rather than too little, when it comes to yarn for a project.
Please feel free to email me with any questions at myknittedheart@gmail.com

Thanks for looking!
