I love to knit sweaters with their seemingly endless design possibilities - photo 1
I love to knit sweaters, with their seemingly endless design possibilities: pullover or cardigan? Raglan, drop-shoulder, or set-in sleeves? Colorwork or texture? V-neck, roll neck, boat neck, or crew neck? And there are so many ways to add your own personal bit of flair. After all, we do this because we want to make a unique knitted thing that reflects who we are, right? When I was approached to do this book, my first thought was Gloves? Gosh, how in the world can I come up with 25 distinctive designs for hands? Mitts seemed inconsequential, with little room for fun and exploration. But the more I started sketching out designs and playing around with different ideas, the more smitten I was with the concept. Instead of sleeve options, I was brainstorming interesting ways to make a thumb gusset. Instead of deciding between a pullover and a cardigan, I was thinking, flat-knit gloves or worked in the round? Ive come to realize that though the canvas may be smaller with gloves, there are still lots of opportunities for customization and creativity. My own personal style is an eclectic mix of feminine, edgy, conservative, and bohemian; in the following pages, you will find evidence of this.

I truly hope you enjoy making these projects as much as I did designing them. This book was designed with every knitter in mind. Fingerless gloves and mittens are the perfect project for quick gratification, to learn a new technique, and to knit on the go. Been itching to give stranded knitting a try? Check out Beetle Mitts ( use shaped intarsia to achieve smooth, flowing lines. (Be sure to visit the guide in the back of the book for photo tutorials on stitches and special techniques used in this book.) Need a quick gift for a special man or woman in your life? Big and Little Bamboo Mitts incorporate simple knit-purl texture to create the perfect unisex fingerless mitt. Young or old, beginner or advanced, looking for an adventure or just a relaxing knit, Knitted Mitts & Mittens has a project for you!

A big hug and kiss to my ever-supportive husband Kirk He hasnt once - photo 3
A big hug and kiss to my ever-supportive husband, Kirk. He hasnt once complained about all the fabric, yarn, and other assorted crafty stuff Ive accumulated over the decade weve been together. Although I try not to talk about knitting all the time, when I do, he can hold up his end of the conversation. For that, I am very grateful. I would like to thank Rae Blackledge, my friend, coworker, and technical editor of these patterns. Rae was also the willing and knowledgeable hand model in all the tutorial photos.

Thanks, Rae, for allowing me to be able to say, Okay, now do some stranded knitting! and give you almost no other direction than just that. Id like to give a shout out to Lisa Shroyer, former editor of Knitscene, now editor of Interweave Knits and Knit.Wear. When I submitted two ideas to Lisa for Knitscene two and a half years ago (having never published a knitting pattern before), she accepted them both. I was a random nobody and she took a chance on me. Thanks for the faith, Lisa! Michael del Vecchio and Hal Ozbelli of Premier Yarns also took a chance on me when they hired me in April 2012 as design coordinator. I had only a few years of knitting and a handful of published patterns under my belt, but for some crazy reason they thought I could handle doing the designing thing professionally. Thank you so much for believing in me and giving me a job! The strikingly creative photos in this book are the work of talented photographer Burcu Avsar.

She brought each and every one of these projects to life most delightfully. Lovely job, Burcu! Lastly, Id like to heap my gratitude upon Pam Hoenig, my editor at Stackpole Books. Throughout the journey of this book over the past nine months, Pam has been extremely helpful, insightful, and all-around great to work with. I was able to exercise ultimate creative control over the projects in the book, from yarn choice and color to design, and got nothing but support from Pam along the way. The ability to be free in this decision making allowed me to unleash many ideas that easily could have been stifled in other circumstances.
