The Hug-a-Mug Gloves were inspired by what many of us love to do every morning, ‘Hug-a-Mug’ of your favorite brew! These fingerless gloves keep you warm and your mug comfortably in hand.
Now, these beautifully simple gloves have been made a little more complicated with a knitting technique lesson. Learn ‘two-at-a-time’ knitting, a skill that should not be limited to socks! Knitting ‘two-at-a-time’ can be applied to anything you want to duplicate. Fingerless gloves are a quick-knit, making them perfect for learning this technique.

This 11-page pattern is packed with step-by step photos to guide you through the learning process. The glove pattern itself is provided in two formats, a long description with photos as well as a compact 1-page short-description. Why? When I fall in love with a pattern and want to knit it again, the added descriptions and photos can just get in the way. The 1-page short-description provides the simplified instructions without pictures.

Pattern has been tech-edited and test-knit.
