I designed these Bulky Texting Mittens with Winter texting in mind. It’s cold up here in Northern Ontario, and I wanted mittens that I don’t have to remove to answer the phone, make a call or text. These are really just regular mittens with a hole for your forefinger. You can easily sneak out your finger and slip it right back in to its toasty haven.

The size is easily adjustable since there is no ribbing. You could easily cast on 28 or 34 stitches instead of 32. If you have shorter or longer hands, simply reduce the number of rows between the thumb and tip of the mitten. And as for the ‘texting hole’, I recommend situating it at the level of your forefinger knuckle, or slightly above.
