Madeleine Hat and Mitts Knitting Patterns

I’ve been naming my patterns for baked goods for a while, now, but usually the connection between the name and the pattern is a little more obscure.

This one is really simple: the columns of cables reminded me of madeleines. That’s it. Happy stitching!

Sizes Madeleine Hat: finished circumferences 17.5” (20”, 22.5”)/ 45 cm (51 cm, 57 cm) Madeleine Mitts: finished circumference 7 (7.5, 8) inches /18 (19, 20.5) cm

Materials Both the hat and the mitts use fingering weight yarn, and are shown in Moondrake Yarn Co. Soft Fingering, 437 yd/100 gm, single-ply superwash merino wool. The hat uses 180 (220, 280) yds; 165 (202, 253) m, and the mitts use 150 (170, 190) yards / 138 (156, 174) m.

[{"selector":"#anim-4a50f94e-d94c-4e42-98fa-bbf63285e54f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f0696527-e145-45a0-a04c-6ad0711647cd","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(119.85017%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] The hat needs one stitch marker, and the mitts need three stitch markers as well as two pieces of waste yarn for holding thumb stitches. Both patterns need a tapestry needle for weaving in ends. Tools

Both patterns are written for intermediate knitters, and use cabling, increases, decreases, and knitting in the round.
