Mittens are cute and all, but it’s 2020 and these days we all need access to our cell phones. Without
access to at least our thumb or pointer finger, there’s no way to use them.
So I designed a mitten that has small holes just big enough to let your fingers free so you can browse
Instagram and Ravelry to your heart’s delight. Might I suggest @Knitcrate’s pages? How about @
CorradoLark’s?
I’ve included 4 versions of the pattern: with no finger holes, with a thumb hole only, a pointer finger
hole only, or holes for both your thumb and pointer finger. Mix and match your mittens to your heart’s
delight. Both the right and left mitten miraculously are knit the same way. Trust, it surprised me, too,
after I knit the first one!
