LU LA LOOP cap + mittens

Description

fOTOS, design and text © Anne Ventzel

The LU LA LOOP Instructions consist of a warm cap and a pair of cuddly mittens, both knitted from a bucle yarn, which is knitted with a classic wool yarn.

The bouclé yarn gives the pattern a unique graphic expression, and the yarn combination allows you to create your very own color combination.

Both the cap and the mittens are made first in the rib pattern, then smoothly on the right. Finally, the knitted pieces are turned to the left and this side is now the new outside.

The project is suitable for beginners:inside.

Gauge
17 stitches x 26 rows smooth right on needle 4.5 mm = 10 x 10 cm

I recommend that you make a knit sample first before you start with the actual knitting. Wash the gauge and allow it to dry before taking measurement of it. Adjust your needle size if necessary, as one stitch creates a different fit more or less per 10 cm.

Recommended needles
4,5 mm circular knitting needle 40 cm (cap) and 4,5 mm double-pointed needles (caps and mittens)
