Really great pattern! Very easy and a quick knit, just finished a pair for my 2 yo grandson. Thank you
ReplyDeleteMy 1st mittens & I made a few assumptions. S1 I assumed slip as if to purl (purl wise) & m1 I knitted in both front & back loop of same stitch.Thankyou!
ReplyDeleteIn row 9 Shape Top it says"1st Row: S1, s1, k1, psso, k9, k2tog, k2, s1, k1, psso, k9, k2tog, k1" the s1, s1, k1 is not the same as a SSK, correct? And do you pass both slipped stitches over the knit stitch or just 1?
ReplyDeleteI love your mittens pattern but am stuck in the US where I cannot get Double Knitting wool does anyone know if these would knit up okay on worsted that is what seems to be available here
ReplyDeleteI passed 1 stitch over the knit stitch and they worked beautifully. I am in love with this pattern- the results are really cute.xxx
DeleteThank you for lovely pattern I made a pare now I want too make some bigger once how do I work it out for 7 and 9 yrs old.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this great pattern. It's been 20+ years since i picked up the needles and finding your pattern is such a bonus! A small group of us are making Hats, scarves & mittens to give to the refugee crisis and others in need of warm winter clothing. x
ReplyDeleteWhen its s1,s1,k1,psso, do you pass both slipped stitches over or just 1?
ReplyDeleteI passed 1 and it qworked perfectly - i do believe if it was 2 it would say p2sso
DeleteI wanted to make these using different yarn but I can't find a Guage
ReplyDeleteI wanted to make these using different yarn but I can't find a Guage

Hi can these be done for a 3 &4 yr old thanks
ReplyDeleteI am stuck on the part after you knit 11 and then turn. it says working on these 11st only, work another 5 rows. Do I just knit in the 11 st back and forth 5 rows or do I knit one row purl one row.
ReplyDeleteknit 11 on the RS, then turn and knit 11 on the WS. A knit worked on the WrongSide is the same as a purl from the RightSide.
DeleteI too am stuck on the Knit 11 and turn. Seems I should be knitting on the stitches between the increases, but how to get there from the Knit 11 turn.
ReplyDeleteAh. Previous row only purl 26 stitches in. Got it
ReplyDeleteI finally figured it out but that one little part of the instructions is confusing and should have been explained for dummies. Ha ha
ReplyDeleteIve made three pair of these now. Very good project for me. Im a "very much part-time knitter dad" and this pattern turns out nicely, while providing some challenges along the way. Very nice pattern.
ReplyDeleteHow would I make these for a 1 year and 3 year old. I want to make them as Christmas gifts and don't want them to be too big or small. I don't see where it says a size.
ReplyDeleteI was able to get someone to trace their hands. That gave me a good idea of width and length. IT worked!
ReplyDeleteI love this pattern! I keep using it. Just made another pair of mittens :-)
ReplyDeleteI always use your pattern. Easy knitting and fits exact.
ReplyDeleteJust found this pattern and it's perfect, thank you
ReplyDeleteThis pattern is a joy to work with, so easy and the results are fabulous. Thank you making this available.
ReplyDeleteBest mitten pattern ever. Will be my new go to.
