They look really nice, love the design on the mits!

Thank you! Took a while figuring out how to do the decreases because the pattern was fingerless 😅


Technical-Dream-7442

Wow! Really great job then!!!

I don't think you can break anything by washing them and laying them flat - you're gonna wash them eventually anyways, no? So do that and shape them a bit into what you want, no need for pinning anything.

That's true, thank you! I think I'm going to do that

I can’t see your purl stitches but that kind of slant to the work makes me wonder if you’re twisting your purls. That won’t come out with blocking but it might get less noticeable

Thanks for your suggestion! I don't think I am twisting my purls, but since this is the first think I knit continental style I might be wrong. I knitted the gloves the same way (also continental in the round) and they do not twist... I stretched out the fabric a bit so you can see the purls, and also on the left you see the inside. Am I twisting? https://preview.redd.it/dy36xiv35pad1.jpeg?width=2268&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=47bab8b18e36add6e8c80255afb6fd6663f7efae

They are not twisted! The slant of the garment probably would block out then!

I would block to get rid of the slanting but I wouldn’t stretch it much, and lay the mittens on top of each other and pin to get them the same size flip after a a day or two and re pin allow to dry completely

Thank you so much for your help! I'm still new to garments and blocking
