Have you knitted scarves and want to take on something else more interesting? Learn how to make a fuzzy and warm pair of mittens! Whether you prefer a full cover or half cover mitten, we'll go through the techniques and tips for a successful project.  The techniques we cover in this workshop are essential for small diameter projects such as mittens, gloves and socks. The topics covered include:

This workshop is for intermediate beginners who are already familiar with knit, purl, casting on and off. If you're comfortable making scarves, this workshop is a great next step! If you'd like to bring your own materials, we recommend using a bulky yarn in size 5 or 6 (106 yrds, 170g) and two sets of double-tipped knitting needles in 8mm and 10mm sizes. You need at least 4 of each size of the double-tipped knitting needles. If you choose to have materials included, we will provide the needles and yarn required to complete the project.


Note: We will focus the workshop time on the techniques required to complete the project. Attendees will leave with patterns and a new found confidence to finish the project at their own pace.Measurements needed for hand size if making mittens for someone else:

The easiest way to get the measurements is to trace the hand of the intended recipient on a piece of paper. We recommend having them open the thumb and close the other 4 fingers together for the trace.  Trace the entire outline of the hand and also the beginning of the wrist.

Duration: 1.5hr
