KAREN MITTENS

The knitting pattern will be sent as a PDF file to your email.

KAREN MITTENS go together with KAREN HOOD, my contribution to the Isager Archives 2 collection. The main feature of the mittens are the zigzag stripes creating a V-shape towards the fingers. 

They are worked from the ribbing towards the fingers. The ribbing is worked first, and then the mittens are worked in the round with increases and decreases creating the zigzag pattern. At the same time, the contrast stripes are knitted. The thumb placement is marked with waste yarn after the first zigzag stripe. The thumb is knitted on last. 

SIZES:
One size
