These hand warmers are a great last-minute gift or stash-buster. You can make a pair in under 3 hours, and you can use any color combinations you have on hand. Plus, the unique thumb design makes construction a breeze. They’re knit from the bottom up, starting with a ribbed cuff and then increases for the thumb gusset. The thumb stitches are then knit back and forth and closed with a few crochet stitches.
