Knit Fisherman's Mittens for Men

October 4, 2014

It is just starting to turn cold here in Atlanta. T built our first fire for today, so it is the perfect time to start thinking about fall mittens. There don't seem to be too many mitten patterns out there for men, but I found this cute pattern from Dreams in Fiber on Ravelry (it's free!). I made this pair:

Pattern Notes:

I used Vanna's Choice Solids in Heathers and Twists (the same yarn I used for my cat eye mask).  I used a size 3 needle, and I only needed to make seven rows in the thumb before starting the decreases.  These came out a little large - I might try a smaller needle size in the future!
