And as for socks, I don't have one that specifically goes with those mittens, but I found some online that may help:<br /><br />http://www.knitpicks.com/patterns/Mini_Stocking_Ornament__D55489220.html<br /><br />http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/mini-christmas-stocking-ornaments<br /><br />http://www.freshstitches.com/free-knitted-mini-sock-pattern/<br />Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13514956042704449850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8555604584446079598.post-38956867900144035562012-11-15T12:16:52.124-05:002012-11-15T12:16:52.124-05:00PS: The writer of the pattern says to pick up and ...PS: The writer of the pattern says to pick up and knit 2 stitches when you rejoin the two sides, if you are familiar with this technique those stitches will go across where the thumb section is finished so the rest of the mitten doesn't taper unevenly. If you are not familiar, the internet is a wonderful resource for those unfamiliar with knitting techniques, I'm sure you can find a video that can show you what to do!Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13514956042704449850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8555604584446079598.post-30895695890356858682012-11-15T12:10:18.652-05:002012-11-15T12:10:18.652-05:00You can use any size needles, obviously the smalle...You can use any size needles, obviously the smaller size needle the smaller the mitten! The writer of the pattern listed her recommended needle sizes on the bottom the instructions: <br />For Sport or DK Weight: US size 3 needles<br />For Worsted Weight: US size 5 needles<br /><br />As for the upper section - it's been a year since I worked on these so I'm a little foggy, and not sure how to explain it without going through one again. These mittens are knit flat and sewn up after they're finished; the thumb section is knit from the middle of the flat piece, finished, then the rest of the mitten is knit. So, when you have finished the thumb and are back down to the length of the flat mitten, whatever way you can figure out, rejoin the lengths on either side of the thumb into one row again and continue knitting till you think it looks long enough, gather the last row up, then sew down the sides to form the mitten!<br /><br />Because these are not wearable mittens, if you miss a stitch or have to improvise if you can figure out the instructions, embrace it! They don't have to be perfect, I think in fact a little character makes them even cuter! I think every mitten I made was slightly different cause I missed a row here or there, or made the thumb too long, but they all looked adorable in the end, no matter what! As long as it resembles a mitten at the end, how closely you followed the pattern matters very little!<br /><br />I learn best by trying things, so I would suggest first going as far as you can on a sample mitten following the instructions, and see where it takes you! Try not to think about it too much. Once you have a few under your belt it should become a little more intuitive! I'm just above a novice knitter at best, so if you have enough experience to knit mittens on 4 needles I have every confidence you can figure a way to make these work even if you have to improvise! If you are still struggling after you try it, I can try to do a photo walk through when I get a chance. Best of luck!

And can you explain the 1st sentence in the upper section of mitten? I'm sorry for all the questions - I learn better by watching and I'm used to knitting mittens on 4 needles.<br />thanks for your help!<br /><br />PS - do you happen to have a pattern for socks the same size so they can both be on the same garland?angelabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434421514145453115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8555604584446079598.post-57900517980298307042012-11-14T15:35:48.664-05:002012-11-14T15:35:48.664-05:00The link is embedded in the text above, but here i...The link is embedded in the text above, but here it is again! <br />http://www.yarn.com/resources/Yarn/docs/discdpatterns/99_Mini_Mittens.pdfMarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13514956042704449850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8555604584446079598.post-28364176885089525762012-11-14T15:00:25.650-05:002012-11-14T15:00:25.650-05:00HI,
