Mittens are a great accessory to have on hand (pun intended!) and I’m a big fan of the fingerless mitten variety. I particularly love this very light and soft pair knitted in our Cowgirlblues Kidsilk yarn. They are a relatively easy knit for an intermediate knitter, with a small challenge in the thumb “sleeve” if that’s your flavour. These fingerless mittens are also a nice intro to double pointed needle (dpns) circular knitting for an advanced beginner.

One size, fits wrists/hands of approximately 18cm circumference with 1cm of ease. Cast on a few extra stitches to make your mittens bigger
