PDF knitting pattern for fingerless gloves with a Puffin on the front of each glove. The palm sides of the gloves are plain. The cuffs are in a scalloped lacy pattern.

The mitts in the photographs were knitted in mid grey Drops Baby Merino. The Puffins are in black and cream Rowan pure wool 4ply and have red beaks and rust legs. The mitts could be knitted in any 4ply weight yarn.

The motifs are knitted using the intarsia method, but the mitts could be knitted in plain stocking stitch and the pattern added afterwards using duplicate stitch.

The approximate measurements for the mitts are: 8.5cm/3.25” wide (unstretched and not counting the thumb), 13.5cm/5.25” long from top of lacy cuff to cast-off edge and 4cm/1.5”deep cuff.

Charts for both left and right mitt are included, together with typed knitting instructions. The pattern comprises of two PDFs. One is A4 size in portrait layout and comprises of full typed knitting instructions and also includes a chart for the cuffs. The other is in landscape layout and comprises of charts for both left and right mitt in black-and-white symbols.
