Hayley1 Â Â 10 #1 Posted August 30, 2010 Are there any free patterns anyone's come across to make adult mittens that are not knitted in the round or on dpns please? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Hayley1 Â Â 10 #2 Posted August 30, 2010 if not, then how do I knit in the round please? I do have one of those needles with the thin plastic 'string' between them (don't laugh I think they're called circular pins LOL) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Wheezy   10 #3 Posted August 30, 2010 Have you looked on Ravelry? I queued a pattern the other day for some mittens. It's worth a look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Hayley1 Â Â 10 #4 Posted August 30, 2010 yeah, I've been looking on there for the last few days but I haven't happened upon anything suitable yet Thanks Wheezy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
cryinglion   10 #5 Posted August 31, 2010 http://www.freevintageknitting.com/mittens/615-mittens-pattern.html  I've used this one a couple of times. It has instructions for knitting in the round on 4 needles first but if you keep going down the page it gives instructions for knitting on two needles then seaming up. Lots of sizes too.
