Arcade Nights Fingerless Mitts

Description

This sweater is part of the Arcade Nights set with the Arcade Nights Dog Sweater. Available individually or as a bundle.

This pattern includes step by step video tutorials to help you through from cast on to bind off!

This nod to a favourite retro video game, especially when done up in bright colours, is always a head turner on walks. Such a fun set to knit and wear.

These fingerless mitts are worked seamlessly in the round from the cuff up, with stranded colorwork throughout. I used a 9” circular needle for the body of the mitts and DPNs for the thumb.

Charts show colors as featured in sample, a dark background helps the other colors to pop. These charts can be used for colorwork or duplicate stitch. If you choose duplicate stitch, you do not need to change your needle size at any time. If you choose colorwork, you will have to go down a needle size for stockinette stitch section.
