Knitting Jenny Pattern 11 and 12: Fair Isle Inspired Shetland Mittens and Design Workbook is a modern interpretation of traditional Fair Isle knitting patterns.

Knitting Jenny 11 and 12 features one PDF that includes two separate patterns, which are similar yet unique designs, which can be mixed or matched.

Yarn suggestions include 100% pure Shetland wool in a 2 ply jumper weight, or substitute any fingering weight or 2 ply equivalent to a 4 ply.

This pattern features circular knitting construction, from the wrist upward to the fingertip, as well as a cuff with folded picot hemmed edge, or you can substitute any ribbing (or other edge).

These mittens offer a fully adjustable length and width, with instructions on how to do so.

Suggested knitting needle sizes are:
