Annie's MittensOriginally designed as a charity knit, I loved these cozy mittens so much I had to share them with you! As a guild project, every year we knit mittens for an inner-city kindergarten class in the Bronx, NY. The teacher, Annie is the daughter of one of our members and we always refer to the project as Annie's Mittens. The yarn is held double for these mittens which makes them a quick knit even though you're using a sock-weight yarn. Have some fun and play with the pattern repeat in the self-patterning yarn. Try to get the striping to match up or mix it up on purpose. Both look great.
Size: Children's S, M, L
and Women's S, L The yarns used in the photographed mittens are Opal Petticoat (1295) with Opal Uni brown (1263) in Women's size S and Opal Petticoat (1293) with Opal Uni dark blue (1269) in Children's size M.
Guess Who?Wild fingers, bright colours, long life - who wouldn't want to wear these great gloves? They have a unique construction that creates a very long life line as part of the thumb gusset. After working the thumb gusset, knit the thumb then move on to the rest of the hand and the fingers. Make a pair for your kids, your grandkids or yourself. Knit every finger a different colour if you want. Self-patterning or hand-painted yarns paired with a contrasting solid or semi-solid look great. How can you resist?
Size: Children's 4-7 yrs
and 8+ yrs, Ladies' S, M, L. The yarns used in the photographed gloves are Opal Hundertwasser (1430) with Opal Uni orange (6) in size 4-7 yrs and Opal Hundertwasser (1431) with Opal Uni purple (1414) in size ladies' small. See Pattern Revisions for Guess Who?
