Peaks and Valleys
by Destiny Itano
Oh, the ups and downs! If there is one constant in life, it’s that it’s rarely constant – but sometimes you can look at all the changes and see how they connect. In that spirit, these fingerless gloves are designed using simple texture and twists to create a valley on one side of the hand, wrapping around into a peak on the other side.
These mitts are a quick knit – great for a gift or treat for yourself. Worked in the round, the pattern comes in two sizes (small/medium and medium/large), and includes charts for each size.
Materials: Indigodragonfly Chameleon Sock; 63% extra fine superwash merino/20% cashmere/17% silk; 400 yards (366 m)/100 g; sample shown in “Cattle Car Galactica”
US 2/2.75 mm needles, or whatever size you need to achieve gauge: double-pointed needles (DPNs), 1 long circular for working magic loop, or 2 circulars according to your preference for working in the round
Gauge: 32 stitches and 50 rounds per 4 inches/10 cm in stockinette stitch
Sizes: Small/Medium (Medium/Large) to fit a hand circumference of approximately 7-7.5 inches [17.75-19 cm] (7.5-8 inches [19-20.25 cm]). *Note: hand circumference should be measured around the palm, not including the thumb.
