Thumbless hand knit baby mittens.
These baby's lightweight wool and nylon blend thumbless mittens are knit in smooth stockinette stitch with seamless construction. Thumbless design easily slips onto small hands. Left and right mitts are interchangeable. Ribbed cuffs gently hug the wrist. The mittens are available with or without a coat cord.
These traditionally knit mittens are knit by hand in-the-round with superfine weight yarn on US size 1 double-pointed needles (not cranked on a machine) to obtain a gauge (in stockinette stitch) of 88 stitches per square inch! This fine, tight gauge creates a warm, durable fabric.
AVAILABLE IN CORDED OR CORDLESS STYLES Mittens are available in two styles: with or without coat cord. The coat cord is a knitted tubular cord that is attached to each mitten to join them together. It will help prevent the mittens from being lost if baby does manage to wiggle out of them. To use, simply slip each mitten through a jacket sleeve and secure the cord with a safety pin to the inside back neck of the jacket to hold it in place.
Sized for baby, 3 to 9 months.
