Phyllis Wharton’s scallopers’ wristers

Yarn Mrs. Wharton uses Bartlettyarns 2-ply Fisherman Yarn with No. 4 double-pointed needles. You can use any natural, oily medium weight yarn.

For each pair, you will need (oz) 2 3

(g) 57 85.5

Needles Although Mrs. Wharton, like many traditional mitten knitters, used Size 4 (3.5mm, Can. Size 9) double-pointed needles throughout, knitting the cuff with Size 3 (3.25mm, Can. Size 10) needles improves the appearance and the fit. Likewise, binding off with a smaller needle will prevent the top edge from rolling. For the hand of the wrister, use Size 4 double-pointed needles or the size you need to knit stockinette at the correct tension.

Tension 5½ sts = 1 ” (2.5cm) in stockinette on larger needles

Other supplies Blunt-tipped yarn needle
