These mittens might seem to be the height of basic--ribbed cuff in two length variations and stockinette hand, knit in the round from the cuff down—but they come loaded with options. The pattern is written in three yarn weights (bulky, worsted, and fingering) and five different sizes from toddlers up to men’s large. The fingering weight can also be made up as liners to really bring on the cozy!

Make these even more interesting by using them as a base for your favourite colour charts. Just Plain Mittens? Just plain awesome!

Bonus Fleece Liner: If you want the warmth of two layers but don’t want to take the time to knit up the mittens in fingering weight to line, use these fast-finish sewn fleece liners to double it up!
