DESCRIPTION

Inspired by Claire’s mitts from Outlander Season 5 (Seen worn by Claire in episode 10 ‘Mercy shall follow me’) the apothecary mittens pattern will allow you to create an interesting slipped stitch/cable design.

The main mitt is knit flat and the thumb section is then knit in the round.

Yarn

La Mia Just Wool - color LT003 - 50g/126 yards/116m x 2.

This yarn is from Hobium Yarns online.

Yarn weight - DK/Light Worsted/8 Ply.

Please note that the yarn used is DK 100% recycled wool.

You can substitute with any DK/Light Worsted /8 Ply yarn.

Needles

4 mm (US 6) Knitting needles – I used my interchangeable circular needles on a 40cm/16″ cable – I did not join in the round to knit the main section of the fingerless glove.

I did join in the round to complete the thumb section and used the magic loop technique.

You may want to use a smaller cable for this section if you have one.

Cable needle (4mm/US 6 size).
