Perhaps you are already familiar with the ROBOSOCKS? Maybe you'd like to side with the ROBOMITTS? If so, the pattern is waiting for you here, on Ravelry and will shortly be available in my Etsy shop.
Here's what you'll need to know:The 5-page ROBOMITTS .pdf includes addtional instructions for making them as fingerless mittens. The robots just keep going and going...
Size: Women’s Medium (or any hand that is 8” in circumference.)
Gauge: 9 stitches = 1 inch (2.5 cm) in Stockinette st.
Yarn: One ball of Knit Picks’ Palette (231yd / 50g) in each of the following colours: Ash (Main Colour -- MC,) and Raspberry Heather (Contrast Colour – CC.) Alternately, any other fingering yarn in these colours or colours of your choice may be used. A 15” piece of waste yarn of the same weight in a contrasting colour to hold the thumb stitches is also required.
Needles: One set of five (5) double pointed needles in US 1 (2.25 mm) or size necessary to obtain gauge.
Notions: A stitch marker to mark beginning of round (optional,) and a sewing needle to weave in ends.
Skills Needed: Increasing and decreasing, knitting in the round, stranded knitting, twisted stitches, and chart reading.
Enjoy the robots! I'm off to go put the finishing touches on the Winter Veggies mitten pattern.
