These mittens for newborns -no thumbs to knit!!

I created the pattern when Tasha’s parents informed me that they were using her baby socks for mittens so she wouldn’t scratch herself. Being thumbless, they reminded me of goldfish crackers.

I made 3 pair from one 50g skein of yarn, and had leftover yarn. Now I make them out of any leftover sock yarn.

The proceeds from this particular pattern are donated to Tibetan Village Project (tibetanvillageproject.org).

I would be happy to give you the pattern if you agree to donate a pair of mittens to a chairity -- just send me a message via Ravelry.
