Description

Cold hands? Arctic office? Meet our Gilmore MItts. They’re an easy design for fingerless mitts to keep your hands toasty.

If you know how to knit and purl and want to learn how to knit in the round, this is a great next project for you. And the mitts are a quick knit.

We’ve used Flying Goat Farm’s Fingal2 yarn, which is a 100% Blue-Faced Leicester wool sourced from Flying Goat Farm’s own flock in Maryland. They also develop their own custom colors which are dyed on the farm. Our model is in Dapple Gray.

This item is a PDF download, as well as access to the digital design which integrates our videos into the design itself to walk you step by step through the new skills.
