The cutest fingering weight mitten pattern for ages 2-102. This lightweight version is designed with a new and improved version of the convertible method that we’ve come to know and love in the original DK weight version.

This pattern features a full convertible version, a fingerless version, and an optional i-cord, all in one. Knit one in every size for the whole family.

This pattern is 30% off along with all of my patterns through November 3, 2024 (ends 11:59 PM Central US Time), with the code WINTERLOVE.

Gauge

28 sts and 38 rounds = 4” / 10cm in stockinette stitch knit in the round.

Yarn Selection

Choose a superwash wool yarn for easier care, or a non-superwash yarn (as shown) for a more cohesive fabric that blooms and promotes more warmth.

OR 90, 110, 140 (180, 220, 250) yards / 80, 100, 130 (170, 200, 230) meters of fingering weight yarn.

Additional yarn is needed for I-cord, if working.

Needles

DPN’s or long circular needles for preferred style of knitting small circumferences in sizes:

• Needle A (Main Fabric) – US2 / 2.75 mm, or size to obtain gauge

• Needle B (Ribbing) – US0 / 2 mm, or two sizes smaller than the above.

The main hand part of this pattern can be worked with small circulars, but you will also need DPN’s or a long circular (for magic loop) for the thumb.
