These fingerless mitts were designed to match Galia Lael’s Casu Cowl. You can get a pair of mitts and a nice-sized cowl out of two skeins of Malabrigo Worsted or Malabrigo Rios.

This pattern was designed for fairly small hands (7” circumference around widest part of palm). Larger sizes may be made by casting on more stitches in multiples of 2 and doing more pattern repeats before the thumb gusset. You may also increase the 11 thumb stitches by continuing the pattern of increases (increasing every 3 rows).
