ReplyDeleteI have tried everything I know and my seam join is never straight . Can you please help ? How many stitches around for a woman’s mitt- 15 or 16? Does the ch2 count as a stitch? PLEASE HELP
ReplyDeleteHi Jennifer! Tks to your easy to follow tutorials, I just learned knitting at age 63. I come from the island of Borneo.Now, I have enjoyed knitting a couple of scarves. I am interested to crochet the men's chunky mitts. However, I would like to use a thinner yarn. How do I make adjustment when coming to round 9? Tks for everything, Jennifer and keep up the good work! Love you 😙
ReplyDeleteIf I wanted to make these mitts for a one year old (so that the whole family could have a matching set) could I use worsted weight instead and get the right size?
ReplyDeleteCan I use an 8 mm hook for this project?
