Knitting pattern for Log Cabin Mittens (Advent 2018) To all of us who think the worst thing about knitting mittens is to knit the thumbs in the end: Here we bring the ultimate solution: We start with them instead! When the thumbs are knitted, we build the mittens using the log-cabin pattern, which is fun, simple and incredibly good to swallow leftover yarn and time, in perfect harmony. You can try them on along the way and easily make them, so they fit exactly to your own hand. The pattern is a PDF file. Immediately after purchase you will be able to download the pattern directly from the purchase confirmation page. You will also receive an e-mail with a link to your pattern, and the pattern will be available here at the site via your personal account - so remember to create an account :-) Read more about digital knitting patterns here.

The two mittens cannot be knit as complete mirrored copies, but they are the same in size!
