Oh these are wonderful! I really should learn to knit…

@wendiek go on, give it a try!

@sheepBlue

I’m crossing my fingers. I’m still a newbie knitter so this will be a new challenge.

@sheepBlue I think you could tackle it! Have you knitted much in the round yet? Mitts are good - they’re not too big a project.

@JoyfulClover

I love when knitters will throw in a contrast color, or just be wild and make things uneven. Stop buying more just for a little smudge! they look so much more unique!

that looks like a lot of ends to weave in, though…

@JoyfulClover I agree, I’m trying to mix it up more. Actually, it’s not that many ends to weave! The contrast stripe “seam” up the side means ends to weave only at the beginning and end, a couple at the thumb (as nearly all mitts), and a couple extra for the contrast thumb bind off.

Very cool! I could definitely use some of these. Thanks for sharing the link to the pattern.

I have knitted in the round but it was on circulars. I’m thinking I may go get some DPNs and start that journey of discovery haha

@jemimah ohh, that is a well thought out pattern. Impressive, but sneaky! I love it!

You can do it! Looking forward to seeing what you create
