Knit these adorable little robin festive baby mittens to keep little hands warm at Christmas!

These 4 Ply push on mittens have no thumbs for easy dressing.

These picture knits are worked flat and seamed for easy intarsia knitting.
If you are a new knitter and not quite ready to work in intarsia this time, simply Swiss darn (duplicate stitch) the little robins onto your mitts after knitting.

This knitting pattern has instructions for the following sizes:
0-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-12 months.

Choose any 4 Ply yarn (or sport yarn) that knits on 3.25mm (US3) needles to the tension listed below. The little mittens shown here were knitted in Bergere De France Caline 4ply.

10cms/4 inches = 25-26sts

You will need:
A pair of 2.75mm (US2) single pointed needles
A pair of 3.25mm (US3) single pointed needles

This easy to read knitting pattern has separate detailed row by row instructions and picture charts for each size to help to make this pattern super easy.
If you are printing this pattern, just print out the size you are knitting along with the ‘All Sizes pages to save on ink! All pages are clearly numbered and indexed.

I do recommend knitting these mittens flat and seamed with intarsia pictures, but if you only work in the round you could convert this pattern for DPNs and duplicate stitch (swiss darn) the robins once you have completed the mittens. Each size would need to be 2 stitches less, (you would need to omit the first and last stitch of each row).
