After the gusset, live sts are placed on hold for the thumb while the body of the mitten is completed, then the thumb is finished in Stocking stitch. The fingerless mitts are worked in the round in 1x1 Twisted Rib, with a wrapped stitches patten on the back of the hand. After the gusset, live sts are placed on hold for the thumb while the body of the mitt is completed, then the thumb is finished in 1x1 Twisted Rib.
