Knitting kit for Ilsa mittens in Önling No 3
Ilsa is a mitten designed for full freedom of movement, perfect for tasks like using your phone or other activities without needing to remove the entire mitten. You can choose to keep the mitten “top” on to stay warm while outdoors, and when you need to use your fingers, you can free them through the mitten’s opening—all in one seamless motion. The mitten features faux cables, twisted to the right and left on all ribbed edges, including the mitten and thumb.
In this pattern, you’ll learn a cast-on method that allows you to knit in two directions. Knit these mittens for yourself or gift someone you care about with this stylish and practical design. Ilsa mittens are designed for 2nd advent in December, as part of our 2024 advent calendar🎄
The mittens are knitted in Önling No 3, 100% organic heavy merino wool—the softest and most luxurious merino yarn.
This kit contains: Önling No 3 for the selected size and color, and a digital pattern
The pattern is a PDF file. Immediately after purchase you will be able to download the pattern directly from the purchase confirmation page. You will also receive an e-mail with a link to your pattern, and the pattern will be available here at the site via your personal account - so remember to create an account :-) Read more about digital knitting patterns here.

Procedure:
The mittens are knitted in the round, starting at the wrist and working towards the fingers, using the magic loop method. Begin with a ribbed edge featuring cables. Continue in stockinette stitch across the hand and set aside stitches for the thumb. After the thumb, ribbing with cables is worked on the underside of the mitten, while the top of the mitten remains in stockinette stitch. The stitches on the underside of the mitten are then bound off, and new stitches are cast on using a provisional cast-on method. The top of the mitten is finished, and the ribbing around the mitten’s opening is completed and sewn in place. To adjust the mitten length, either set aside stitches for the thumb earlier or later and/or knit more or fewer rounds without decreases at the top of the mitten.
Please note: The price of the yarn kit is calculated based on the amount of yarn included, which is the amount we have used to knit the design according to the above measurements. Should you need more yarn, additional yarn can be purchased at regular prices by placing an order and state lot number in the comment box at checkout. All designs have been thoroughly calculated and tested.
ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- When you buy a kit for ALL designs from PetiteKnit's, you will receive a printed, pattern together with your yarn, as we are unfortunately not allowed to sell Petite Knits' patterns digitally.
- When you buy a kit for a design from selected books (e.g. Helga Isager), you sometimes have to buy the book separately, in cases where the patterns are not released to be sold separately. It will always be clearly described in the product title, with for example "xx kit, excluding pattern", when the pattern is not included.
- All patterns from Isager are delivered as a printed pattern, as we do not have access to sell these digitally. You will receive your pattern along with your yarn shipment.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
