2025 update: There’s now a zine version of this pattern — print the print file double-sided (just like a normal 2-sided document) and fold to make it a fun booklet!

This zine went out to my knit-tier patreon members for November. If you join by the end of the month, you’ll get this pattern/zine plus a new pattern and my Knitting Comrade tutorial zine too!! Join the digital tier to get all these as downloads for the same price as this pattern alone, or join the mail-tier to get this pattern zine and the tutorials zine as printed booklets as well!


These are constructed in the round in any gauge, from the thumbs out, and come in 3 different versions: short fingerless, long fingerless, and full mittens.

They are made modularly, increases and decreases shaping them throughout, fit to your hand as you go - no short rows, very little casting on and no binding off, and no seaming when they’re finished. A fun quick knit which stays interesting every step of the way!

All versions can be made in any weight yarn. There are 2 different wrist designs as well - all garter stitch and garter edged. For the long fingerless mitts, you can make each side in each of the two patterns; for the other 2 versions, you can choose whichever stitch pattern you like best. In the long fingerless version, the hand and wrist sides are the same length, so they can be worn in either direction.
