Mitten Tutorial
I'll be posting a step by step little tutorial on how to knit these mittens with the "Indian thumb gusset " on 2 needles.
What you need is worsted wt yarn - light or medium wt worsted will work.
I think a little over 100 yds will work as I was able to squeeze out 3 pairs from one ball of Ironstone.
My gauge was 5 sts to 1 inch - use whatever needles give you that gauge.
Yes you should knit up a swatch, unless you already know your gauge with worsteds. I do ;)
I'll post step 1 tomorrow and after I'm done with all the steps I'll be posting the pattern over on my pattern blog.
And for those of you who hate to seam and would rather make your mittens in the round - stay tuned for that pattern.
