free knitting patterns for mittens and how to knit a mitten with a

Gloves which cover the entire hand but do not have separate finger
openings or sheaths are called mittens. Mittens have a thumb, knitted on
the side or at the side of the hand palm.
Mittens are warmer than gloves made of the same material because fingers
maintain their warmth better when they are in contact with each other.
As well, the reduced surface area means that there is less heat loss.
A
baby mitten has no thumb at all. |

In the
Selbu museum are
original Norwegian knitwear and also mittens.
And an original mittens pattern,
, I have recharted this pattern
As you can see the stitches are very
small and the yarn is very thin, 48 stitches by 48 rows per 10 cm !
These photo's are from the Selbu
Museum. |

These mittens are a good impression
of original Norwegian knitwear

This is
where you can buy online original Selbu knitwear |
What are these
numbers ?
For instance 25 x 25 = that is your gauge
So you have to knit
a tension swatch first, knitted in pattern of your choice
then
choose your mittens pattern with the right gauge.If you don't knit a tension swatch,
you will never have the right size.
Knit the mittens in the round, circular, if you want, or on straight
needles
Sock yarn is great for knitting mittens

I followed it exactly. Sally |

Start with my
tutorial how to knit a mitten with a thumb gusset
The left side of the mitten is charted and the thumb gusset ( starts
with 1 stitch ).
The right side is the same as the left side, just add up the stitches.With a motif the first and second
mitten are knitted in opposite direction.
The thumb gusset stays in the middle,
the motif of the thumb gusset is
also knitted in opposite direction for the second mitten.
The front of the mitten is knitted with a beautiful motif and the
back of the mitten
with a simple and easy motif, this goes for the thumb
as well.
