Inspired!
I’ve been working on a new pattern – for stranded mittens – for my daughter for Christmas. The pattern was inspired by a really beautiful yarn. It has everything stranded mittens need (in my opinion of course!) – great colour, fingering weight, a bit of ‘grab’, superwash and wool. For what more could I ask?
I’ve paired it with Paton’s ‘kroy’ sock 4 ply in black – to give it a chance to do it’s colourful thing. Oh yes – the yarn – it’s Marks and Kattens ‘Fame Trend’ in the colourway ‘party’. I found it at the Knit and Quilt in Barrie a week or two ago. Beautiful! I will definitely be back for more!
I’ve finished the pattern and have knitted the first mitten. I’ve posted the pdf pattern, if you’d like to use it -

Please let me know how it works out for you!
Have a great day





Beautiful design!
Thanks! I’m proud of this one – I’m hoping my daughter will love them
Those are lovely mittens. A work of art.
Thank you! I wanted something sort of different from the really symmetrical geometric patterns out there, sort of with more ‘flow’ – I like how they came out and hope others enjoy the pattern too
The mittens are wonderful!
Thank you!
Stunning mittens. Love the pattern and the yarn! You have inspired me!
I’m glad and thank you so much!
