About
These snuggly mitts are easy to knit and can be worked up quickly, making them ideal for gift-giving, as well as being a great addition to your colder weather wardrobe. The simple thumbhole is easy to knit with no shaping required and results in a glove that offers warmth without restricting finger mobility. A self-striping yarn makes this knit an easy, eye-catching project but they’d also be great in plain colours.

Construction
These wristwarmers are knitted inside out and worked in the round, with a simple hole for the thumb that requires no increases or decreases for shaping. Beginning with a small section in st-st, these mitts are mostly knitted in the round in a k2, p2 rib. For the thumbhole, we switch to working back and forth in rows before reverting back to knitting in the round for the final section of the hand. Another small st-st section is worked (resembling a rolled hem) - when the mitts are turned the right way round this offers an attractive textured hem.
