Notes

I knit 2.5” of rib for the cuff instead of 3” because I was concerned about running out of yarn.

I decreased the mitt length between the top of the thumb shaping and the bind off. I knit the flip top 3.75” long instead of 3” long.

I used conductive thread on the thumb. I worked the first 9 rnds with the red yarn and worked rnds 10-12 and the decrease rnd with a strand of fingering weight yarn held together with a strand of conductive thread.

Mitt:
-15 rnds rib (2.5”)
-3 rnds stockinette (0.5”)
-12 rnds thumb gusset (2”)
-9 rnds stockinette, lifeline for mitt top - 6” long
-3 rnds stockinette - 6.5” long
-6 rnds rib (1”) - 7.5” long
-BO using decrease BO from Semplice Fingerless Mitts

Flip Top:
-6 rnds rib (1”)
-9 rnds stockinette
-9 rnds shape top - 3.75” long

The yarn was a gift/destash from my grandmother-in-law.
