Small Potatoes Fingerless Mitts

=Enjoy 20% off through October 16, 2025 with code **Autumn20**. Discount valid on all self-published patterns! In addition to knitting and designing patterns, handspinning has found a place in my crafty endeavors. Often, I’m drawn to a colorway or fiber and spin just 1 skein. As I add special single skeins to my stash, I am working on adding special single skein designs to my knitwear design portfolio. Enter **SMALL POTATOES FINGERLESS MITTS**! This accessory is designed with DK weight handspun yarn in mind. A ribbed and textured pattern accommodates variation in yarn weight, and the circumference shows off color shifts beautifully. If you take care when weaving in your ends, these fingerless mitts are totally reversible. Wear them inside out and on either hand. Directions are provided for both right and left mitts to mirror the textured panel. **YARN** 2-ply handspun yarn, approximately 15-16 WPI (wraps per inch), or DK weight wool or wool blend, 1 skein / 1 4 oz braid. *Sample shown in Size 1, 2-ply fractal handspun, 100% Falkland by Into the Whirled [www.intothewhirled.com][1], colorway Decidedly So, 118 yd / 108 m (51 g).* Choose a DK weight wool or wool blend for a piece with a similar structure. **YARN ESTIMATE PER SIZE** 136 (186) yd / 124 (170) m 59 (81) g Estimate based on commercial DK weight yarn, 230 yd / 210 m per 100 g and includes 15% buffer. **FINISHED HAND CIRCUMFERENCE** Sizes 1 (2) 7” (8.35”) / 17.8 (21.3) cm **FINISHED LENGTH** 7.5” (8”) / 19 (20) cm *Adjust length as desired by working a longer cuff or top ribbing.* **GAUGE & NEEDLES** 23 stitches & 32 rounds = 4” / 10 cm in body pattern US 5 / 3.75 mm circular needle, 32” / 80 cm for magic loop or double-pointed needles *or size needed to get gauge* Share your finished work on Instagram with #[SmallPotatoesFingerlessMitts][2] Tech editing: Bronwyn Hahn Test knitting: Rebecca B., Alison L., Stacey M., Sydney N., Karen P., Isa P., & Kim R.
