Knit Mittens Made Easy

From: $45

Welcome to Mittens Made Easy (In Person Class)

Mittens are the perfect project for intermediate knitters ready to take their skills up a notch!

If you’re comfortable with the basics and looking for a fun, wearable project, this class is just for you.

Over three hands-on sessions, you’ll learn how to knit a pair of cozy mittens, perfect for chilly weather or gifting. Using standard straight needles, we’ll guide you through every step—from casting on to shaping the thumb—so you’ll finish with a beautiful handmade piece you can be proud of. Let’s knit something warm and wonderful together!

Everyone learns and knits at different speeds, some like homework, and others not so much!  Most students find that with completed homework, they need three (3) class sessions of 2 hours to complete the knit mittens.  You can book more or less as needed!

Skills Needed:

  • Basic Knitting Skills: You should be comfortable with casting on, the knit stitch, and the purl stitch.  If you feel you need to brush up on your basic skills check out our Introduction to Knitting Class!

Supplies Needed:

  • skein of worsted/size 4 yarn
  • size 7 and 8 needles
  • 2 stitch holders
  • stitch markers

Class 1: Getting Started – Casting On and Creating the Cuff

In the first class, we’ll cast on stitches and begin working on the cuff of the mitten using a stretchy ribbed pattern. You’ll learn the basics of working with both worsted and bulky yarns. By the end of this session, you’ll have completed the cuff and be ready to begin shaping the body of the mitten.

Class 2: Shaping the Mitten and Thumb Gusset

In this class, we’ll focus on knitting the main body of the mitten while simultaneously shaping the thumb gusset. This is where you’ll see the mitten taking shape as we create space for the thumb naturally as part of the mitten body. By the end of this session, the hand portion of the mitten will be nearly complete, and the thumb gusset will be in place.

Class 3: Finishing the Mitten – Decreasing for the Top and Completing the Thumb

In the final class, we’ll work on decreasing stitches to shape the top of the mitten. You’ll also finish knitting the thumb, which has been worked alongside the main mitten. We’ll also cover how to finish and sew up any seams neatly for a polished look. By the end, you’ll have a fully finished mitten that’s ready to wear.
