SELBU STYLE MITTEN<br />

By Uknitted Kingdom<br />

NEEDLES & SIZES<br />

One set double-pointed needles, or other needle(s) for working<br />

a small circumference in the round.<br />

Change needle size if necessary to obtain correct gauge.<br />

Small: US size 1/2.25 mm<br />

Gauge 32 sts = 4”/<strong>10</strong> cm; Mitten circumference 7”/18 cm<br />

Med: US size 2/2.75 mm<br />

28 sts = 4”/<strong>10</strong> cm; Mitten circumference 8”/20.5 cm<br />

Large: US size 3/3.25 mm<br />

26 sts = 4”/<strong>10</strong> cm; Mitten circumference 9”/23.5 cm<br />

PATTERN<br />

Cast on 52 and join in the round.<br />

Follow the chart from the bottom upwards and always right<br />

to left. The grey squares indicate “no stitch” so they do not get<br />

included in your stitch count.<br />

Round 50: Follow the chart to where the red line indicates the<br />

thumb will be. Either put these 12 stitches onto waste yarn or a<br />

stich holder or knit the 12 stitches with waste yarn in a contrast<br />

color. This will be unpicked later to knit the thumb.<br />

Round 118: Pass yarn through the <strong>final</strong> 8 stitches and cinch<br />

firmly. Cut yarn leaving a 6” tail and weave in all ends.<br />

This is a blank template for a pair of Selbu Style mittens. When worn the ribbed cuff is<br />

turned inwards and isn’t seen. Where the cuff turns inwards the decreases and yarn-overs<br />

made on round 16 create a picot style decorative edge.<br />
