Gobelin Fingerless Mitts
Gobelin (polish word for “tapestry”) are little fingerless mitts with a lot of decorative details to keep you entertained! Colourwork, colourwork with purl stitches, decorative welt and rolling stockinette edges - it’s going to be a quick and interesting knit! Depending on your colour choice they can be very festive or have a medieval, Hogwarts or Scandinavian vibe. Only your imagination is the limit! There are two options available - a mitten without thumb gusset (version A), and with thumb gusset (version B).
YARN RECOMMENDATIONS:
Suggestion 1:
Sock yarn of your choice (around 420m/459yds in 100g/3.5oz skein) in two contrasting colours.
In the bordeaux and cream sample I used custom dyed Atelier Zitron Trekking sock yarn (420m/459yds in 100g/3.5oz skein).
Suggestion 2:
Holst Garn Supersoft in two contrasting colours
(287m/313yds in 50g/1.7oz skein) In the purple and pink sample I used colours: Sloe and Sweet Pea
YARN REQUIREMENT:
10 (12, 14) g of contrasting colour (CC)
28 (32, 36) g of main colour (MC)
You need about 2g more of each colour
to knit version B.
TOOLS NEEDED:
2mm (US 0) circular needles or a set of 5 double pointed-needles
2.5mm (US 1.5) circular needles or a set of 5 double pointed-needles
Stitch markers, a tapestry needle for weaving-in the ends
GAUGE:
32 sts x 36 rows = 10 x 10 cm (4 x 4”) in colourwork on 2.5mm (US 1.5) needles
SIZING:
XS/S (M/L, XL) for hand circumference of approx. - 16.5-19 (19-21.5, 21.5-24) cm 6.5-7.5 (7.5-8.5, 8.5-9.5)″. Mitten length - 18.5 (18.5, 20) cm 7.25 (7.25, 7.75)″. Finished product width - 18 (20, 22) cm 7 (8, 8.75)″.
If you have difficulty deciding what size to knit - choose a smaller size.
