Inspired while knitting the Boxy Cowl by Michelle Krause, I decided to knit mitts to match. These were knitted with magic loop, but can easily be worked using your preferred method for working in the round.

Using one 50gr skein of yarn, these are a quick knit and a perfect gift.

The fabric is stretchy, fitting many hand sizes comfortably. The thumb gusset is simple, requiring no stitches to pick up, making it a good project for advanced beginners.

Techniques: knit, purl, K2tog, M1L, M1R

Notions needed: 2 stitch markers, tapestry needle for weaving in ends.

Many many thanks to my test knitters: Dawn, Kiwa, Jenni, and Linda!!

Dawn ( drromig ) has made some changes to knit these for her little girl - you can find her modifications for child size here.
