It's that time again - Release Day! I'm really excited to show you Teine (pronouced tjene) in all it's glory! The third pattern in my Elemental Mitts series is fire! Teine features a column of lace flames running up the outside of each hand.
These are a super quick knit and there are six sizes - pick a size that gives you at least half an inch of negative ease for the perfect fit!

Thumb time! They only take about fifteen minutes each but for some reason, I always put off doing the thumbs. I think it's because the rounds are so short and it's a bit annoying with magic loop!
The pattern for Teine will be released tomorrow, so make sure you're signed up to my newsletter to get 40% off!

Do you have a favourite bind-off for mitts? I like mine stretchy but not too stretchy to avoid the top flaring out. My favourite is a variation on the elastic bind-off where I knit the knit stitches before knitting them together, but I just do a p2tog on the purl stitches!

I love twisted rib. It's super easy and it always looks neat. The crossed legs on the knit stitches mean they pull closed instead of open so it doesn't look gappy or stretched like 1x1 rib sometimes does.

I think my favourite part of knitting mitts is when the thumb gusset comes off and you can finally see their true shape!

One thumb gusset is done so now it's the other mitt's turn! This pattern is super easy so once you get in the flow it flies off the needles.

Two cuffs done! I always work my mitts and socks in stages. It means I avoid second sock (or mitt) syndrome and if I make a change to one mitt, I don't have to rip back too far to change the other one!

Isn't this pretty? It's the first "flame" on my fire pattern!

This is the Estonian Cast-On. It's my favourite stretchy cast on and I use it any time I can! I love how the pairs of stitches are wrapped together and it looks really great with a rib pattern. If you want to give it a go, check out the tutorial on my website!

Isn't this yarn gorgeous? It's Eden Cottage Yarns Hayton 4ply in Red Goosefoot. These are going to become the next pair of fingerless mitts in my elemental series!
