There’s still a lot of mitten knittin’ going on over here. I think I enjoy mittens because they are quick, portable, and a great way to have some fun with color and cables and stuff. The Chevron Love Mittens were all about the color but this new pair is all about the cables.
The pattern is All the Water Mittens by Kirsten at Through the Loops. As always, Kirsten’s pattern is perfectly written and includes plenty of details.
The yarn is leftover Madeline Tosh worsted in the color dahlia. They are soft and warm and were scooped up immediately by Hannah.
That’s okay, though, because the next ones will be mine, all mine.
Laurie Said,
Nice! I like the rocky background. Hannah is a smart grrl. You and I are in sync…I’m knitting them also, but out of a heavier yarn. Turns out they may fit Mr E rather than me, but that’s okay.
Lisa Said,
Very pretty – love the color!
Vicki Said,
Ooo, nice. What colors will you be using for your mittens?
Nora Said,
Hannah has the best mitten wardrobe around! Just lovely!
Barbara-Kay Said,
All that cabeling should insulate well, too.
The next pair will be amazing. Have you picked your yarn?
margene Said,
A little mitten mania going on around here. Do you like the Madeline Tosh? I’ve been wondering about knitting a sweater.
jill Said,
Those are gorgeous. I love purple, so regal. What fun you will have with the color work in your new mitts. Can’t wait to see what colors you chose. Happy Wednesday, Carole!
Kirsten Said,
They are very pretty in the Madeline Tosh yarn.
You’re going to love your End of May mittens. I wear mine all the time.
Kim Said,
I love the color of these mittens!
Your next pair is on my list of things I hope to make too.
Beth Said,
So pretty! Maybe you can borrow them from Hannah sometimes.
I like the next mittens you’re going to knit!
Patty Said,
Just beautiful Carole! Can’t wait to see the color scheme on the next ones!
Judy Said,
You’re pretty convincing on the mitten front. Great pattern.
Carol Said,
Gorgeous but I can’t wait to see what you do with those End of Mays!!
kathy b Said,
I love that they didn’t pool at all. Glad they were scooped up. I have never knitted a mitten on four needles…..someday
Julie Said,
BEAUTIFUL! I’m not surprised they were scooped right up.
kmkat Said,
These are all about the cables? Yeah, that color is soooo boring
Jo-Ann Said,
Ooooh, that raspberry color is amazing!! Sure makes my cream & gray yarns look b-o-r-i-n-g … how long ’til I can try mittens? LOL
Hillary Said,
Great mittens! The color is really lovely. Hannah is really doing well in the mitten department this winter.
Kirsty Said,
I love the colour!! Stunning! No wonder they were snapped up quickly!

Those are gorgeous! I would have snapped them up too!

The mittens are vibrant, it also caused me to notice some of the rocks had a bit of its hue in them.
