The culmination of my quest for perfectly fitting fingerless mitts. The pattern incorporates all my favorite elements and is available for free from Blazing Needles if you purchase the suggested yarn. Instructions are given for two cuff styles and a unique roomy thumb that fits everyone well.

The fold-down top element was inspired by these lovely mitts, and these, and these. The thumb forchette is described in June Hemmons Hiatt’s treatise, The Principles of Knitting.
