It seems to be raining babies all around me at the moment and I decided that all these gorgeous little people need fabulous woolly mittens to keep their tiny hands warm - Baby Gingham Mittens to be precise!

These cute colourwork mittens can be made in two sizes to suit little people up until they’re about 12 months old, just by adjusting the needle sizes. This pattern is also customisable to include super cute little ruffles or an icord detail.

Size 1 = 0-6 months
Size 2 = 6-12 months
Finished Length: 12cm/13.5cm
Finished Width: 5.5cm/6.5cm
Icord Length: 60cm/70cm

Using approximately 8-10 grams of main colour and 6-8 grams of contrasting colour per mitten means you can certainly use up any minis you have lying around or leftovers from your sock stash. I personally think the wilder the colour combinations, the better.
They whip up super fast and are simply adorable. I hope you enjoy making them as much as I have!
