that's simple and easy to follow. thank you.
Thank you so much for being here and watching! 💕✨
First time making mittens and your video was so helpful. Thank you!
Oh my gosh! That is so sweet!! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me a comment! 🙏❤️ It means so much to me!
AWESOME VIEDO!!! I love loom knitting because it helps me keep the stitches even..Love how you went slow, and step by step!!! Thanks so much...I am going to sew a piece of fleece and put in the inside...Michigan winters get cold...LoL
Thank you soooooooo much I might 9 years but that doesn't mean I can't knit
Thank you so much! I’m sorry I didn’t get a notification of this when you first commented. ♥️Stay warm In Michigan.🥶
Did you start knitting Tianna? 😊
thank you thank you I have been trying to find a mitten video that simple and not difficult having to deal with decreases. so cannot wait to try this
Hi Erin Lodini! Wonderful! I am glad you are excited to try this! Thank you for being here! :)
I found this video really helpful! Thanks a million!
Awwww so grateful! Thank you for taking the time to comment! ♥️♥️
Thank you so much for making it so learning friendly. My question is I know you say make it as long as you want but it would help me if i had a guide. I am not good at guessing. How many rows did you do for each section? from there i can see what i need. I have been looking for a long mitten. so many of them only go to the wrist. thank you so very much.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me a comment as well as watch. 🙏 Your comments are very kind. I will look in my notes for the measurements but just in case, something I do is place the loom over my hand. It helps me figure out how long or short I want something. I hope that makes sense and I can’t wait to see your mitten! 🧤 Thanks again for being here! 💖💙🩵💚💜🩷
Thank you so much for the site provided. The best part of your video is that you keep your camera focus and never leave the viewing area away from the camera or get the picture so blurry that you cannot visualize what it's being done. Thank you for being so detailed and precise. It is great when you can follow a project step by step till the end. Thanks for your patience in this regard.
Vianka Cross Thank you for saying such kind things! I really appreciate it so much! ❣️Thank you also for being part of my channel. :-)
Vianka Cross I look forward to seeing your mitten. 💕
Can you add subtitles? It would be very helpful for those of us who depend on them. Thanks! Can’t wait to try this!
I am so sorry! I thought I had them on. Thank you for letting me know! I appreciate your kindness and can’t wait to see your sock. 😊
Thank you for giving me this link! I also will watch your messy bun hat! :D
Thank YOU ppyli !! I am glad you are here!!🌸💐💕🌺
Thank you! Very helpful 👍
Lillian Refuerzo Thank you so much! I appreciate you being here!!
Thank you..very easy to follow
Rose b Thank you so much for being here! 💕
I love this tutorial. THANK YOU! It was so easy to follow. I wanted to make a pair for my adult son, as the pair I made was way to narrow for his hands. I started a new pair on the next size up loom, however, I realized shortly on that it would be way too big. What do I do to make a bigger size? Is it the yarn I’m using? Help!!! :)
Karen Biega Hello! Thank you for your kind words. What yarn are you using?
I see you said do them was done with six pegs from beginning, if I'm using a smaller loom how do I figure out where to do the thumb? Am making for next Christmas an Santa Fund free for children. Love your pattern I saw some patterns very difficult, moving a bunch of the loops and other difficult things. Love your calming voice.
i used a bulkier yarn that i had extra of, strangly even following every step my mittens feel to big. is there a way to shrink it up?
Hmm 🤔…The only way I can think is to put them in the dryer. 💗🙏
Love this video! I’m using blanket yarn for a thicker mitten but my cuff is turning out too big, how can I fix this?
Thank you❤️! I am sorry. I have never used blanket yarn for this. Not sure if a way because of the thickness of the yarn.
I made this for my husband *yes I'm on my son's youtube. I will say the thumb is not wide enough for his hand and he is skinny. So pretty much this is a good mitten but you really need to make it by trying it on the person who will wear it like you would clothes.For the palm of the hand before you get to the thumb I made 18 rows. Next, for the thumb itself, I would say you can possibly line the persons thumb up against the pegs on your loom and multiply number of pegs by 3 to get how many pegs to stitch across by. For the length of the thumb as far as how many stitches you should make for me as a woman I made 40 rows and then checked by putting my thumb inside. Again you will have to check out the width and length of the thumb or you will be making this mitten for nothing. Then for the rest of the way up the hand. I lost count but definatly more then 20 rows. I would say 4 times around makes about an inch.
what size is the loom you are using. I have the Boye set. I used the smallest one in my set which is 24 pegs and it seems to be just a bit too big. Is there a slightly smaller loom you can recommend???
Hello Evin Conyer ! This is a 24 peg loom with 1/2 inch between pegs. I hope that helps! :-)
Would it be possible for a tutorial on mittens with a thumb for a 2-3 year old.
Wava Willoughby I think it’s possible. :)
Can you please show how to loom knit a fingerless flip or convertible top mitten? Thank you
Connie Brown I will definitely see if I can make that into a video! 🙂
Hi Gina lay
I have a small hand I just started making your mittens and small thumb what the best number pegs to use for the thumb
Melinda Waslyk I usually tell people to measure as you go because everyone is different. 🙂
The only thing i didnt like is no row count i rely heavily on how many rows the step by step is great but going by inches confuses me
Thank you so much for your feedback. It’s important to me.
I'm hoping to I am able to make them. My first attempt (using a different video) was so loose that I ended up making sock slippers. As well, would I need to purl or a straight knit will suffice?
I know you can do it! :-) I’m not sure what you mean in the last sentence.
Did I miss something? Because I didn't see how to make the bottom part of the mitten 😢
Hello Aleta! Thanks so much for being here!! I appreciate you watching!! 🙏💗Are you asking about the cuff? When we start the mitten we work right into the cuff and then the area before the thumb. I hope that helps. 💙💜🦋
Do you do the other thumb 6 to the right?
Can you say number of rows I can't measure
is that #4 yarn? it looks a bit heavier than 4
B.P.Cap Lock It’s a number 5. Charisma is the name of the yarn. The yarn is from Michaels. 🙂 I hope this helps.
gina i love your videos easy to follow thank you so much could you do some loom knit pot holders thank you so much
Lynda Maggio Thank you so much! I appreciate you being here and yes! I will put that on the list of ideas! I love when people give me ideas of what they would like to Knit. Have a wonderful day! :)
Hi Gina I tried this but messed up the thumb it looks wider than yours and I didn't make it long enough so disappointing I watched this video right thru before I started I wish I could post a pic for you to see I'm starting again hopefully it will be right this time , the cuff seemed really loose is there any way of tightening it? Thanks Sandra😊
Hello Sandra Coulter! Do you have Facebook? You could send me a picture through my Facebook page The Mom Writer. :)
Is this the right hand or left hand? Also thank you for making this video. It was very easy to follow and very helpful!
Morgan Mikos This mitten is for both hands. :-) Thank you so much for the kind words! I appreciate you taking the time to comment! 🌷💐🌺
Hi thank you for this pattern. I'm trying to make fingerless gloves with a half thumb. Any ideas??
Hi Lori Crafter! Thank you! Yes, I have an idea for that. Would a video help or would me messaging you be better?
How many times back and forth for the thumb?
Hi Stacy! I usually suggest (because everyone is different) using your own thumb as a reference if you are making it as a reference. ☺️♥️
I wanted to know if you can make a mitten with the thumb not covered in the mitten . I have a young grandson who will not wear mittens because he sucks his thumb and will not wear mittens but right now where they live its -7 degrees. Was wondering if you could help me how to make a mitten that the thumb slips over or maybe Velcro or a button.
Hello sascha w ! Yes you can knit one without the thumb. I have a video on how to Loom Knit a child’s mitten. I would suggest following the child’s mitten and omitting the thumb part by wrapping back skipping those thumb pegs. Please feel free to message me on my Facebook page and I can help you in more detail with pictures and such. 🙂 Thanks for messaging me.
😍😋😋😋😄😄
Just a little idea for anyone who counts there rows. There’s an app called counter+ and it’s so easy to keep track of your rows that way :)
Kally Lahti Thanks for the idea! I just discovered this myself! ❤️❤️
I used it until another knitter from the states gave me a metal finger counter that you have no option but to click each row as I attached mine to my starting peg! If I ever finish unpacking from a move a year ago, I'll post photo!
hi, how over i can't knit over the like @ 1:46. The yarn loops are always too tight
ttttkk2 Try pushing the stitches on the pegs up further before you knit off. That often helps and also make sure you are wrapping the pegs too tight. 🙂
Could you please give us number of rows you did to achieve cuff, thumb etc. then if we need to adjust our row count we could. For me it is harder to measure in inches.
Judy Richardson These measurements are for a smaller hand.
I knitted 10 rows for the cuff, seven for the section from cuff to thumb, 11 for the thumb and 10 rows for the rest of the mitten. I hope this helps. 🙂
Gina Lay yes this helps. This was for your hand size correct ? Also is the thumb knitted any different for left thumb or right thumb? As in some films one goes in left direction and one thumb is knitted in opposite direction
Correct, my hands are on the smaller size, so please adjust accordingly. 🙂 Thumbs are knitted the same for both.
Gina Lay thank you for all that you do and responding to my questions so fast.
@@GinaLay looking at the video you did WAY more than 7 rows for cuff to thumb?
If u don't use chunky yarn ahould u uae 2 pieces of yarn ...
Rebecca Chartier Yes, you can double the yarn. :)
😍😉😁😋😊
I have also used the 24 peg blue loom and chunky yarn it is way to big for my wrist .I do like your videos .
breda walsh Thank you so much! I appreciate you being here!
Hey how can you go from u knitting the thumb and then it’s finished? When do we decrease? When do we increase, how do we finish the thumb? This video is great but u forgot the steps for the thumb.
Camo hunter Hello, I explain to finish knitting until the finger tips are just about covered.
Also at video number 22:44 I explain how to sew the thumb up. I hope that helps. 🙂
What is the diameter of the loom you are using. I can't find one small enough.
This is a 24 peg loom. This brand is Knifty Knitter but you can find the same loom size at Michael’s or Hobby Lobby. :-)
@@GinaLay Thank you.
how many rows did you do between the cuff and the thumb?
Hello Becca M! I didn’t count my exact rows because everyone is different so I used my own thumb as a judge for what I needed. I just stick my thumb into the loom as I am knitting the thumb to get an idea. I hope that makes sense. 🙂
I am wanting to make mittens for kids but can't seem to find good instructions that include how many rows I should use etc. I don't really have a clue
Becca M I have a video for children’s mittens. :)
Gina I make baby hats for the hospital I got 25 made
Pete Dachel That’s wonderful!
how much yarn does a pair take?
Hi Kathy Greener! I use two skeins of yarn for this project. 😁
how many yards are in the skeins
