NOTES
• For techniques you don’t know, please visit our online knitting glossary at www.interweave.com/interweave-knitting-glossary.

• These mittens are worked flat in rows and then seamed. The thumb is worked in the round.

• The first stitch of every row is slipped. The last stitch of every row is worked through the back loop. This creates a selvedge edge that will make it easier to seam the side of the mitten closed.

• These mittens were made with yarn handspun by Sandi Rosner. To substitute, choose a sport- or DK-weight yarn and swatch to make sure you can match the gauge. You’ll need about 140 (185, 230) yd.
