You say 4mm needles but what size
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you are new to knitting but 4 mm is metric and its US equivalent is US 8
DeleteHere is a chart of some:
US 0 is same as 2 mm
US 1 is same as 2.25 mm
US 2 is same as 2.75 mm
US 3 is same as 3.25 mm
US 4 is same as 3.50 mm
4 mm is metric - US equivalent is 8
DeleteGo online and search for the knitting needle and yarn conversion tables.
My source says 4mm is US 6 and UK 8.
Delete4 mm is a G in US terms
DeleteThis pattern is the answer to a prayer! My granddaughter loves these and I was hoping to find an easy pattern to try. This will be one of her favorite Christmas gifts. Thank you so much.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this pattern! I'm pretty new to knitting, and this has been fun so far. One question: What kind of seaming technique should I use with the slip stitched edges?
ReplyDeletegonna give theses a try...ty
ReplyDelete4mm is also known as US 6.
ReplyDeleteLike these knitting patterns for fingerless gloves with thumbs
ReplyDeleteGreat pattern and easy to make. Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the sizes of Gloves... will be making for charity,
ReplyDeleteYour the Best.. thanks again
These Knitted Gloves are one of my favorite. Love the pictures and article writing.
ReplyDeleteWant to make these but what is kfb stand for
ReplyDeleteKfb means knit in the stitch then hold on needle then knit through the back = 1 increase
DeleteThank you for showing them in different color yarn. It makes it easier to decide if it will work with the color we want.
ReplyDeleteHi, I realize you posted your question 5 months ago, but I stumbled across this today and thought I would reply. In this pattern, kfb literally stands for knit front back. It's an increase stitch. I hope that helps. Happy knitting!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this pattern - I was directed to it by a Facebook group and honestly it was the answer I was looking for! I was asked for fingerless mitts in black (!!!) for my autistic nephew. These were perfect. Thanks so much from Australia.
ReplyDeleteThat's great! M
DeleteI'm pretty new to knitting. Are these needles double pointed? Circular? What works best?
ReplyDeleteI use just normal straight knitting needles. They are knitted flat. (You can use circular if you prefer) M
Delete2 questions: Does « S » stand for « slip »? A
ReplyDeleteAnd since there are knit on straight needles, you sew the seams at the end? Are there are differences in the pattern for knitting it with double-pointed needles?
Thanks so much! Can’t wait to make these
Hey! Thanks for this pattern:
ReplyDeleteOne question: what does the S at the start of each row mean??
What does S stand for?
ReplyDeletes = slip the stitch knitwise
DeleteHow many needles are used in this pattern?
ReplyDeleteA pair of 4 mm straight needles
DeleteCould I do these in chunky ? If so what size should I do for a large child size
ReplyDeleteHola qué lindo recién lo veo,solo q no entiendo las letras,ya q acá en Argentina no es asi🤦🏼♀️..es P (punto),ser(derecho),Rev(revés)o P.der,P.dev..algo así.. Hilera y Puntos.😁
ReplyDeleteVery easy pattern. Thank you
ReplyDeleteVery easy and straightforward pattern thank you so much for sharing it. I'm going to steal so much kiddies' hearts with these pretty mittens!
ReplyDeleteCould not have asked for anything better!! Just love being able to put my own colour schemes together.
ReplyDeleteAnd, so easy!!
Thank you
Thank you very much for your time and help you've made me a huge favor 💕💕
ReplyDeleteLovely pattern-would it be OK if I avoided the ribbing and did stocking stitch so it rolls at edges? Also, when it says 'turn work' do I join in new yarn or still use existing working yarn? haven't done this before. Many thanks in advance!
ReplyDeleteJust found this pattern. Cant wait to make some as my hands get cold where I work but I need my fingers free. Thank you for sharing. Happy Christmas
ReplyDeleteThank you for this well written and easy pattern in several sizes. A very generous gesture.
