Crazy lace mitts
These fingerless mittens feature some crazy lace pattern: there is lace on each round and they will be a fun challenge for intermediate level lace knitters! They are knit all in the round with a thumb gusset and are completely seamless. They will look as good in a plain as in a variegated colorway. The pattern is written, the lace part is both written and charted.
Skill level: intermediate.
Techniques: knit/purl in the round and flat, increase, lace.
Yarn: 50 grams of any fingering weight yarn. The sample was made in Wendy Happy yarn. But any sock yarn will work fine. Variegated and solid colorways are both great choices.
Gauge / size:
Size small / medium: 36 stitches and 44 rows = 4” (10cm) in stockinette (US 1 / 2.25 mm needles)
Size medium / large: 32 stitches x 40 rows = 4” (10 cm) in stockinette (US 2 / 2.75 mm needles)
Tools: Size US 1 / 2.25 mm or US 2 / 2.75 mm double pointed needles (or 1 long circular needle if you prefer magic loop) or size to get gauge; tapestry needle; scissors; stitch holder or small length of waste yarn; 2 stitch markers.
