INCENTER by Lee Meredith
3-color garter stitch mittens with triangular color blocks
- fun to make - worked sideways in one piece with short rows for color design
- colors flip placement on front and back of mittens, which can be worn on either hand
- construction is made with Judy's magic cast-on on outside, grafting on inside, and thumb worked around
- mittens are one size (adult), with thumb (and gusset) placed and sized to fit
- make a kid size by using a smaller yarn/gauge
-
you'll need:
- approx 200-215 yards total sport-DK weight yarn, in three colors - I used Blue Moon Fiber Arts Gaea Sport, colorways Ochroid (yellow, color A, 106 yards), Mica (brown, color B/C, 47 yards) & Lover's Leap (HOT pink, color C/B, 47 yards)
- US 5 (3.75mm) circular needle, or size needed to get gauge of 20 sts = 4"/10 cm in garter stitch, 32" or longer (40" is ideal), and either use this for small-circumference knitting as well or double pointed needles in the same size for around the thumb
