This is a super quick knit that works up fast - great for last minute gift giving! There is no knitting to do for the thumb - just leave a hole when you seam each mitt. Separately knitted wrist straps and funky buttons add some unique style.

The pattern is written for 3 different yarn types: D.K., Worsted/Aran and Chunky weights, thus the listing of three different finished measurements, needle sizes and yarns (as seen in my photos). About 90 yards will do for any version.

My colours used:
Diamond Luxury Collection Highland Lux #405 - green
Berroco Lodge #7422 - pink/green mix
Schachenmayr SMC Bravo Rainbow Color #00183 - blue/purple mix
