Just a pattern created for my own personal use… but since I had a decent color chart image I figured I’ll share! I made this a few years ago and just came across the chart again; I don’t have a good picture of finished mittens, so I’ll probably ask the first person or few who make them to feature your photo on the pattern page!

I was asked to do an apple design for a teacher, and came up with this. It can easily be modified with another simple design in the center of the star!

Knit on size 3 needles, this pattern fits most women. Size can be adjusted for larger women or not-too large men’s hands by going up to a size 4 or 5. For larger men’s, you might want to use slightly thicker yarn as well.

This pattern is free to use, but please consider making a donation to Vesterheim Norwegian-American Museum. If you’re shopping for yarn rather than using your stash, please consider ordering from my local yarn shop (Blue Heron Knittery in Decorah IA).

I don’t mind if you knit items to sell using this pattern, or modify it and publish your own version. Have fun!
