Week 5: Book Review: Mittens & Gloves


Thank you for joining me back this week for another book review!
Last week's drawing winner is Lauren! Congratulations! 

If last week's cowls were not your thing, perhaps you'll enjoy this weeks review of the book Mittens & Gloves by the editors of Vogue Knitting Magazine.


This book contains over 40 of the most popular patterns compiled together from previous Vogue Knitting publications. The main focus is mitten and glove patterns, but there are also a few patterns for coordinating hats and scarves included as well.

This is truly a pattern book. There is a teeny tiny section in the back to show you the knitting basics, but the bulk of the book is pattern instructions and photos.

One thing I enjoyed about this book is the variety offered. There are many styles included to suit all different tastes. There are all types of gloves and fingerless mitts.. plain, cabled, colorwork, lace.. everything!
This book contains patterns for beginning knitters and advanced knitters. I think that everyone could find a pattern that they like in here.

Personally, I found many patterns in here that I would love to make and wear. Here are some of my picks.




And of course, I was happy to see Jared Flood's Druid Mittens included. I've always liked this pattern.


If you would like to win this brand new copy of Vogue Knitting Mittens and Gloves provided by Sixth and Spring Books, please leave a comment under this blogpost.

Only one comment per person please, and don't forget to leave your contact information as well!

I'll randomly select a commenter and announce the winner next week along with another book review!

    I've been saving up for a book of patterns focused around hand accessories. Vogue Knitting: Mittens & Gloves is one of the books I've been looking at longingly. Maybe next week I'll discover that I was actually saving up for yarn to go with my new book.

    The few mittens with the cables look a bit bulky but then cables have a tendency to do that. But those gloves look lovely, though thinking about knitting those individual fingers look daunting.

    Neat! I have Robin Melanson's "Knitting New Mittens and Gloves" but I haven't seen this book before. I have a lot of mittens and fingerless gloves, especially because when I started knitting, I bought a lot of single skeins. To use them up, I often knit fingerless gloves. Or mittens. charis_channah17 AT hotmail DOT com

    Would it be too awful to make a string for adult mittens to connect them together? I ALWAYS lose one of a pair. Maybe then I would venture to actually make some mittens.
