My new 18th century knit mitts are finished. They're made from the same materials (lace-weight wool/silk blend yarn) and pattern (
quincy134's Taylor pattern) as my old ones with further reductions. I was never thrilled with how loose the first pair were, and I wanted a slightly tighter fabric - those were made on size 0 needles, but these are size 000 needles. I'm pleased with how these fit now and have hopes that they will be less inclined to fall down than my old ones were.
