Additional Terms:
hdc in the 3rd loop = Look at the top of the stitch, and locate the sideways “V”, bend the stitch to look at the back, and you should see another “V”. You’ll be working into the back loop of that “V”, this is called the 3rd loop.For this hat band the textured portion created by working hdc in the 3rd loop should always be facing you when beginning a new row.
st/sts = stitch/stitches
prev =previous
Gauge:
12 sc in 3”, Approximately 17-18 rows give 4” of height.
Measurements:
Women’s size: 9 1/2” long by 4 1/4” wide at widest point. (Length can be adjusted for your hand. See notes in pattern.)
Additional Notes:
-ch 1 at beginning of round does not count as a stitch.
-ch-2 at beginning of round stands for starting ch + ch-1 sp.
-This pattern uses the Granite stitch also known as the Moss stitch or Seed stitch. It is a stitch with a lot of stretch and excellent drape. As a result these mittens should be very comfortable to wear. They are not for keeping out the snow, however, you may try to modify their function by using a #4 yarn and a 3.75mm or 3.25mm hook which should result in a thicker fabric.
-The length of these mittens can be adjusted, so if you have shorter fingers they will still fit. See notes in pattern.
-Pull your joins snug to minimize the seam.
-I recommend using a solid colored, yarn, heathered yarn, or tonal yarn where the tones are very close in color. The seam goes along your index finger on each mitten and will be more noticeable if you use something else.
