Easy Baby Mittens Knitting Pattern
The Broadstairs Dot Baby Mittens are a simple pair of textured baby mittens that are suitable for both baby boys and girls. They are a great quick and easy knitting project for a new baby and it uses less than one ball of 50g DK yarn.
The mittens are knitted in the round starting at the cuff. With no thumb these mittens are super easy to get on a baby’s hands.
Sizes: The downloadable instructions come with directions to knit both 0-6 (6-12) months
Suggested yarn: DK yarn
