A pair of Xmas mitts to replace this pair, which was early-gifted to Mom in the wake of Dad’s stroke last month. (Her hands were cold. We were sad. It seemed the appropriate thing to do.)

Such a quick and satisfying knit - and a nice break from the cable-heavy gifts I’ve been churning out this season. My one mod was to start the end ribbing (done in 2x2, because I forgot that the cuff was 1x1 - oops) a bit late and extend it to give that last leaf a bit more structure.

Could there be a more perfect yarn for this project? The answer is “no”.
