Jamal
Jamal is simply the word for camel. It is pronounced evenly: Jah-Mal. During the Around the World Stitch-Along in 2023, there was a little banter about making camel themed designs for the next year, and I had a perfect skein of yarn for that. So, would you like a Dromedary (one hump) or a Bactrian (two humps)? This design is a little whimsical and permits you choose either option to make warm and fun fingerless mitts. The humps serve a utilitarian purpose in trapping warm air next to the arms, too.
Materials:
Dromedary (one hump) - 1 (1, 1, 1, 1, 2) skeins of Malabrigo Rios (100% Superwash Merino) - (210 yards / 192 meters, 3.53 ounces / 100 grams per skein)
approximately 115 (135, 160, 180, 200, 220) yards / 105 (125, 150, 165, 185, 205) meters worsted weight yarn
sample knit with Malabrigo Rios 208 Camel
Bactrian (two humps) - 1 (1, 1, 2, 2, 2) skeins of Malabrigo Rios (100% Superwash Merino) - (210 yards / 192 meters, 3.53 ounces / 100 grams per skein)
approximately 145 (170, 200, 225, 250, 275) yards / 135 (155, 185, 205, 230, 255) meters worsted weight yarn
sample knit with Malabrigo Rios 655 Chaja
Finished Measurements: approximate circumference of 4.75 (5.5, 6.5, 7.25, 8, 8.75) inches / 12 (14, 16, 18, 20, 22) cm
approximately 7.5 (9, 11.5, 13, 13.75, 15) inches / 19 (23, 29, 33, 35, 38) cm in length from cuff to end of hand for Dromedary
approximately 10.5 (12, 15, 16.75, 18, 19.25) inches / 26.5 (30.5, 38, 42.5, 45.5, 49) cm in length from cuff to end of hand for Bactrian]
