So many of us have all this beautiful sock yarn and I thought it would be fun to use it for some beatufiul simple fingerless mitts. Grab a skein or some left-overs of your favourite sock-yarn and you’re ready to go! ♥

This is my own basic mitten recipe which fits me very well. As it is a recipe, I encourage you to modify and customize it to your specific needs. You could add length to it, replace the stockinette with a pattern of your choice, do a different style of ribbing - there are so many ways to make it yours!
As people have different-sized hands, I encourage you to try your mitten on as you go (which is easiest if you are using magic loop) and increase or decrease stitches if the fit isn’t perfect. I have written the pattern in a way that is very simple so you can change things easily.

Enjoy! ♥
