These mitts were designed to coordinate with the GAP-tastic Cowl by Jen Geigley and Autumn by Jane Richmond.

The mitts are knit in the round using primarily seed stitch, which makes a thick, plush fabric for warm and cozy hands. Since they are created using a super bulky yarn and US13 / 9mm needles, they knit up quickly and are great for gift-giving season.

Construction & Schematic

Construction

These mitts are worked in the round. Increases for a thumb gusset are worked, and then the thumb stitches are placed on a holder to be picked up and worked after the body of the mitt. The pattern can be easily modified to make them longer by adding more rounds (in increments of 2 rounds) in the seed stitch before the thumb gusset for a longer wrist/arm length or after the thumb gusset for a longer upper hand length.
