If fingerless mitts are already an abbreviation of mittens, then these little mitts are an inkling of the concept. The Inkling Mitts are perfect for that small skein of luxury yarn you’ve been saving for something special, making them a good gift knit.

Mitts are worked in the round and begin at the wrist with a rick-rack edging and then hand and thumb gusset are knit partially in Stockinette st and partially net stitch. The thumb and fingerwell are edged with garter stitch. Instructions for two sizes are included and you can make the mitts longer by adding more pattern repeats after the thumb gusset.

Pattern tested and tech edited.
