In Minnesota, Opening Day might just be cold enough for mittens!

Show your pride for your favorite team with these baseball inspired mittens featuring pinstripes and baseball stitching along the edges.

The pattern only includes the chart for the MN Twins, but it also includes a chart with a blank section to draw in your team’s logo. The blog post with the pattern gives tips on creating your logo.

The pattern was written for a 7.5” wide mitten, but if you knit it at a gauge of 9 stitches/10 rows per inch it will be just about 8.5” which is a men’s medium/large.

I used three colors of Knit Picks Palette: Serrano 40g/185yds, White 20g/93yds, Jay 10g/47yds for the 7.5” size.
