A simple ribbed mitt, in a slightly unusual uneven ribbing will keep your hands warm, while allowing your fingers to work. Knit them in a solid color for utilitarian use, or use a variegated yarn to create more of a splash!

The flared cuff variation begins with a wider rib, with the extra stitches decreased away at the wrist.
