Notes

This is my first attempt to work with more than one colour. After managing the Julekuler project so fine and with fun! I’ve gotten so adventurous to give this a try:

  1. Searching for yarn and colours.
  2. Measuring of yarn, will use it double stranded.
  3. Put project to Ravelry. ;-)
  4. Start - wish me luck!

Notes:

  • CO with circular needles.Than changed to DPNs
  • I-cord cast on seems very lose, but pulls together after first knit row. Looks really clean & nicely.
  • Placement of yarn in the hand is important to get the correct yarn (colour) dominance. I choose the constrast colour to be the leading one. I keep the CC next to my palm and the MC further on my index finger.

Idea:
Knit a cuff onto the inner lining.

Finally, after more than 9 years. Its a shame - but not the fault of the pattern. Found it back this January and kept going after 2 weeks of knitting we have a pair.

The second (later) mitten is larger, but I don’t mind.
