This is a great pattern for a quick gift. The quilted slip stitch pattern shows up well with variegated yarns, and keeps hands toasty warm. It’s also completely reversible, with a waffle appearance on the inside.

Please note that the nature of the slip stitch pattern means that your stitch gauge is much tighter than usual with a DK yarn, and it uses more yarn than expected. Also, your beginning of round will migrate before and after the thumb gusset, so if you use a stitch marker to mark the beginning, you will have to move it around.

This pattern has been proofread but not test knitted by anyone but me. If you find a mistake, or encounter difficulties, leave a comment and I will do my best to help you.
