Cosy Mitts Knit-Along Winter 2024

If you’re after a warm addition to your winter, and love the idea of short cosy knits with quick rewards, this Winter knit-along will be perfect.

You can enjoy the knitting these fingerless mitts for all the family as you’ll find multiple sizes of pattern.

Not only that, with 5mm needles and Aran weight Rowan Felted Tweed Aran Yarn, you’ll see them grow and be wearing them in the cold weather within a week or two.

Easy to pick up and fun to knit, the cable patterns gives not only a beautiful texture, but also extra thickness to the mitts.

And if you’re not sure about knitting cables, there’s  beginner plain mitts to give you some more confidence, and video tutorials with step-by-step guidance to knit up the cabled ones when you’re ready.

Knitted in Felted Tweed Aran, by Rowan, it’s a classic yarn that isn’t going anywhere, so this pattern is repeatable with many shades to match different occasions. It’s also ideal for gifting a few times as each pair of fingerless mitts can be individual and suited perfectly for the recipient.

Don’t need fingerless mitts for yourself? These mitts are exactly what you need to knit for all your friends and family for this winter and next!
Fingerless mitts always go down well, and as they’re knit-able in large and small (large, medium and small for the beginners plain ones) you’ll be filling the Christmas list before you know it.

Skills needed:
Knit and purl stitch
Increasing and decreasing 
Cabling skills (for the Mirror Cable Mitts)

Size of fingerless mitts:
Beginners Fingerless Mitts: Large, Medium, Small,
Mirror Cable Fingerless Mitts: Large, Small

What to expect inside the Cosy Fingerless Mitts knit-along

Between 3rd and 25th February 2024, you’ll be given access to over three weeks of conversation inside the Knit-Along community space.
Inside you’ll find video tutorials for the two pairs of mitts, comment topics and weekly knitting prompts to guide and support your knitting..

Hannah is there, inside the forum daily, to answer your questions, support with knitty mishaps, and cheer you on as you knit through the cowl.
(one-to-one access to Hannah at this level isn’t currently available in any other form, so if you’ve been hoping to get some extra help and encouragement from Hannah with your knitting, now’s your chance!)

Photos can be shared, along with your comments and questions, so we can share in everyone’s knitting experience. You can be as sociable as you choose; as an introvert myself I love communicating in small bites, but you can log-in as many times as you like each day and let us know how your knitting is going.

The digital pattern will be available inside the Knit-Along space, along with a printable version with less colour.
