SKILLS
To knit these mittens you need to know how to per- form a provisional cast-on, to knit in the round, to be familiar with the stranded colourwork technique, to work following charted instructions, to make an after- thought thumb, and to bind off stitches. Moreover, it
is essential to be able to follow charted instructions, as they are used for the colourwork detail of the cowl and written instructions are not provided.
CONSTRUCTION
These mittens are worked in the round, starting with a provisional cast-on to make a folded cuff with a picot edge, followed by the main part of the mittens, which are worked following a charted colourwork motif. The stitches for the thumb are placed on leftover yarn, to knit it at the end as an afterthought thumb. It is rec- ommended to work them on magic loop, or with 23 cm [9”]-cable short needles.
Each kit contains the yarn you will need to complete your project.
The pattern is not included.
You can purchase the pattern on Ravelry here.
You can also create your own color combination by choosing your skeins in Baby Yak Lace and Tibetan Cashmere Lace.
NOTE: on our baby yak colors, we only dye on the natural basis we have, no bleaching or decoloring so depending on the shade of the natural fiber, each color will vary from season to season, making it darker or lighter. This is the beauty of working with natural fiber and so the shade of the sample you see photographed, not always correspond to the shade we have in stock or at your local LYS.
