PATTERN
See diagrams A.1, A.2, A.3 and A.x. Choose diagram for your size (applies to A.1 and A.x).
Diagram A.x shows where thumb should be placed on right mitten. Work the entire diagram in stocking stitch.
KNITTING TIP
To avoid the garment losing elasticity when working pattern, it is important not to tighten the strands on back side of piece. Switch to a higher needle number when working pattern if the pattern is tight.
MITTENS - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE
Work from wrist and up while increasing for thumb. When increase for thumb is done, slip these stitches on a stitch holder before finishing the hand. Work thumb at the end.
LEFT MITTEN
Cast on 48-48 stitches on double pointed needles size 3 mm with base colour, work rib in the round with knit 2 and purl 2 until piece measures 5 cm. Work 1 round in stocking stitch while increasing 0-4 stitches evenly = 48-52 stitches.
Work diagram A.1. When it has been worked up to the grey squares in the diagram, work A.2 over these 3 stitches. Read KNITTING TIP in explanation above and REMEMBER KNITTING TENSION!
Continue to work according to diagram A.1 and A.2 (increase stitches in A.2). After last round in A.2 there are 11 stitches in A.2 - slip these stitches on a stitch holder. On next round cast on 3 stitches where stitches were slipped on stitch holder = 48-52 stitches on round. Work A.1 over all stitches. When diagram has been worked vertically, 8 stitches remain on round. Cut the yarn and pull it through the remaining stitches, tighten together and fasten.
THUMB
Slip the 11 thumb stitches on double pointed needles size 3 mm. Begin round by knitting up 9 stitches at the back of thumb (knit up 2 stitches in each side, 5 stitches in the 3 stitches cast on) = 20 stitches. Work diagram A.3 in the round. When diagram has been worked vertically, 4 stitches remain on round. Cut the yarn and pull it through the remaining stitches, tighten together and fasten.
RIGHT MITTEN: Work as left mitten but work thumb in opposite side - see diagram A.x which shows where thumb should be worked in pattern.
