YARN IS HELD DOUBLE
Show off a vivid variegated skein with these simple thumb-gusseted mitts, worked in stockinette, sandwiched by ribbing, and knit in the round from the bottom up.

Materials:
KPPPM by Koigu, 1 3/4 oz / 50 g hanks, each approx 170 yd / 155 m (wool)

  • 2 hanks in #P216 orange multi
  • One set (5) size 4 (3.5 mm) double pointed needles (dpn) OR SIZE TO OBTAIN GAUGE
  • Stitch markers

Note: Two circular needles or magic loop are recommended as an alternative to DPNs. Two strands of fingering weight yarn are held together as one throughout, to achieve the much thicker gauge as listed above.
