MYOG Rain Mitts

DIY Mitts
1. Cut out patterns, match up pieces and tape together.
2. Fold fabric wrong side to wrong side (or right side to right side) so that
both left and right mitten pieces can be cut out together.
3. Pin patterns to fabric and cut out mitten pieces.
4. Pin thumb/palm piece (1) to wrist/thumb piece (2) along the red seam
line, right side to right side. Sew the pieces together along the red seam
line. It’s important that the seam line at each end is parallel to the ‘thumb
articulation line’. This will produce the best results in the finished mitt.
5. Open the combined pieces (1 and 2) and place right side to right side with
the back piece (3). The thumb should be folded towards the finger tips.
6. Pin and sew.
7. Hem the cuff.

Size Girth Length

Medium 11” 13”
Large 12.1” 14.4”

My size medium mitts weigh 20 grams on my scale using 2.5 oz WPB back
and wrist and PU rip-stop palm. I tuck the mitts into my jacket sleeve and
don’t use any sort of elastic or draw-cord.

My hand girth around the middle of my palm is about 9”. Over fleece
gloves, size medium is snug to pull on but roomy in the fingers.
