Alex is making mittens for Christmas gifts. The pattern is the Copehagen Mittens from Wool & Pine (pattern purchased on Ravelry). She is knitting the medium size and used about 40grams of Tosh DK for the mitten so one skein will be more than enough for a pair of mittens.
The Copenhagen Mittens capture the essence of Scandinavian design—functional, beautiful, and straightforward. Crafted from cozy DK yarn, these mittens are a tribute to the traditional yet always contemporary Nordic style, featuring a flowing cable pattern that is both a pleasure to knit and to wear.
Copenhagen Mittens are an enjoyable journey in knitting, beginning with a comfortable ribbed cuff that transitions into a landscape of textured stitches and cables, reminiscent of Copenhagen’s peaceful waterways. The construction is straightforward: knitted in the round from cuff to fingertips, with a thoughtful thumb gusset that adds to the mittens’ comfort and fit. The journey culminates with a neat kitchener stitch to close the fingers, ensuring a smooth and professional finish. They offer full coverage, making them ideal for those colder months when warmth is as much a necessity as style.
