This is a basic pattern for fingerless mitts, great for a beginner wanting to learn the “road map” of working a thumb gusset. It’s a small, easy to accomplish project for practicing either magic loop or knitting in the round with double point needles. This pattern is written for a fit with negative ease. For a looser fit, use a larger needle. It is easy to knit this pattern two at a time, using the magic loop method.
