A basic mittten pattern suitable for an advanced beginner knitter. A fingerless option is included in the instructions. The mittens are knitted in the round from the bottom up.

This one is also a great stash buster, the mittens need about 90 yards/45g (fingerless) or 130 yards/65g (regular) of worsted weight yarn.

The pattern comes in sizes small, medium and large. The mittens are suitable for both men and women --- the medium size fits most. (The small size would work for teenagers.) The pattern is highly adjustable, it is easy to knit the mittens to fit your hand.
