Terri Fingerless Mitts is a fingerless mitt pattern with tuck stitch patterning and after-thought thumb for standard gauge machines. There are some video tutorials available at https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTe6VTAXB_s8&si=td...

The pattern was inspired by the tuck stitch patterns used in Carreau Top designed by Terri Martin. I first saw the stitch pattern during the MKC Summit 2025 by Machine Knit Community. I fell in love with the stitch pattern and wanted to knit a pair of fingerless mitts with it.

Later in the year, I participated in the Thumb Mitts KAL at The Knitting School Online by Helen Sharp. The techniques I learned during the KAL made this pattern possible.
The most challenging part of this pattern is knitting the thumbs. I highly recommend making a swatch before you dive into the project.

Make sure your 2 colours have good value contrast.

Machine and equipment:
The sample was knitted on Singer SK560 + SRP60N standard gauge machine. The tension settings provided in the instructions are what I used with this setup. You need a machine with patterning capability. Or you could knit manual tack using hold position.

You need:
Standard gauge knitting machine
Ribber attachment
Colour changer (optional, but makes knitting much faster)
Transfer tool or garter bar
Darning needle, scissors, and other usual notions
