Pattern notes
These mitts are worked in the round by magic looping. I chose this method of construction so that I could try them on as I go to customize the fit to my hand. If you prefer, you could knit these mitts on a shorter circular needle like a 9” circular or you could use dpn’s. There are separate instructions for each hand because they are meant to mirror each other when worn.
