Includes 2 versions—with or without thumbs, and fully illustrated instructions for Judy’s Magic Cast-On (JMCO) along with a link to my video tutorial.

 

Similar to my Guadalupe Mitts, but with a different thumb approach to insure that the 4-row band repeats stays in sync.

These mitts celebrate the 25th anniversary of Mountain Colors. They are worked flat in garter stitch with a design band that highlights the shifting shades of the yarn, and are a soothing, rhythmic knit and are meant to honor Mountain Colors owners and dye-masters Diana and Leslie’s quarter century of devotion to all of us.

Ravelry: Annaguy1956

Yarn Used: HiKoo Sueno, 1 skein of mountain fog, 1 skein of bashful, 1 skein of plum and 1 skein of slated. Each skein is 255 yards. 2. Caron Simply Soft from my stash, unsure of quantities, used 10 colors.

Tips: 1. Followed original pattern except for 1. 2 decrease wedges and 2 decrease wedges; 2. the very end where I completed last wedge and cast off using 3 needle bindoff, didn't do the unique wrong side row. 2. I cast on 120 stitches, adding an extra 20 stitches because I wanted it longer and wider, adding an extra w&to to each wedge making it wider. At the end I completed the last wedge, then repeated row 1, then the unique WS row before 3 needle bind off. 6-1-3-1-6 wedges. For the description of the K-below I would add the word /through after the word into.
