Kari Mitts are an ideal project for gifting, or for a beginner glove knitter, because the broken rib stitch makes the sizing very forgiving. The chunky weight yarn creates a thick, squishy, cozy mitt that you won’t ever want to take off!

The mitts are made to hug the hand, but are very stretchy, which also makes them ideal for gifting. Most sizes fit a wide range of people.

MATERIALS
• 1 set of US 10.5 (6.5 mm) double point knitting needles, or size needed to achieve specified gauge.
• 1 set of double point knitting needles in a size 1mm smaller than gauge needle.
• 50 (75, 95, 115) yds / 45(70, 90, 105) m of bulky weight yarn. The sample used Lion Brand Lion’s Pride Woolspun, which is 127 yds /116m per 100g ball, and is an 80/20 acrylic/wool blend.
• Two strands of waste yarn or two stitch holders for the thumbs
• Two stitch markers
• A tapestry needle for weaving in ends.


GAUGE
14.5 sts /25 rnds = 4” (10 cm) in broken rib stitch in the round on larger needles.

SIZES
Kids (Teen-Ladies S/M, Ladies L/Men’s S-M, Men’s L/XL)

FINISHED MITT CIRCUMFERENCE
5.5 (6.75, 7.75, 9) inches / 14 (17, 19.5, 22.5) cm

Sizing Notes:
I typically wear a women’s M glove. The Ladies S/M size fits me, but also fits my mother who has a women’s XS sized hand, and also fits my husband who has a Men’s M sized hand.
The “Kids” size fits both my 3 year old, and a women’s XXS hand, so it should fit most kids hands with varying levels of snugness.
The Men’s L/XL size fits snugly on a large man’s hand, but fits loosely and comfortably on my Women’s M hand.
It’s an extremely versatile pattern!

As with the Kari Slouchy Hat, this pattern can also be used with two strands of worsted weight yarn held together, which makes it great for stashbusting!
