Inner Wild Celtic Mitts are easy to knit using Araucania merino kettle-dyed chunky 1 skein OR Rowan Pure Wool Worsted 1 x 100g ball.
You can substitute any similar yarn recommended to be knitted on 5mm (US8) needles.
I've also used Debbie Bliss Donegal Luxury Tweed yarn, for example, and Araucania Hand Dyed Pure Wool, as well as Twilleys Sincere Organic Cotton and Malabrigo merino wool all of which work well with this Inner Wild Celtic Mitts pattern.

You may find yourself making sweeping, theatrical hand gestures, your hands being so beautifully decorated with Celtic knot patterning when wearing these Inner Wild Celtic Mitts.
You can wear them as fingerless gloves and also as sleeve cuffs.
The decorative Celtic cable panel across the knuckles is easier to knit than you'd imagine. Inner Wild Celtic Mitts are the prettiest of knuckledusters.

About your Inner Wild pattern
All Inner Wild knitting patterns are designed to be precise yet creatively flexible so you can easily adapt them to your own individual style.
As an indie knitwear designer I’m free to choose any yarn and any needle size. I encourage you to also play with your favourite yarns and needle sizes and enjoy a sense of creative freedom. That’s why I don’t include prescriptive tension / gauge in my patterns.
On each Inner Wild knitting pattern I share the original yarn and needle size used in the accompanying Inner Wild knitwear photograph. These yarns include, for example, Debbie Bliss, Rowan, Araucania, Louisa Harding, Sirdar, Twilleys, Schachenmayr and Wendy.
Naturally, you’re free to substitute alternative yarns; perhaps something from your existing stash or a beautiful yarn that’s suddenly on sale. Experimenting with different yarns is always fun.
You can google “substitution for {name of yarn}” to find alternatives to my originals. This is also very handy for those who might be sensitive to particular wools or synthetic yarns - and helps to use up our existing yarn stash.
In cases when in the future you discover a particular yarn has been discontinued you can use the “saved search” facility on ebay to be notified when someone is selling that discontinued yarn. Or you may be able to buy a discontinued yarn from another knitter’s stash on Ravelry.
