Ray Mittens

The Ray Mittens are seamless mittens knitted in the round, featuring a beautiful rib pattern that brightens up your hands in winter. They start with the ribbing on the cuff, then the body of the mitten is knit with thumb increases. Next, the thumb is separated from the main body and both parts are knit to the tips. A fingerless glove version is also available. **Sizes** 1 (2) **Finished Measurements** 15.5 (18) cm / 6 (7)” circumference 33.5 (35.5) cm / 13 1⁄4 (14)” total mittens length 18 (19) cm / 7 (7 1⁄2)”] total fingerless gloves length **Needles** 3.5 mm [US 4] 80 cm [32”] circular (if using the magic loop technique) or double-pointed needles **Gauge** 31 sts and 38 rows = 10 cm [4”] in Uneven rib pattern with 3.5 mm [US 4] needle (after wet blocking) *Make sure to knit a swatch to check your gauge.
