Would you like to get into knitting but not sure where to start? Our Super Simple Handwarmers are a great first project! Or do you just have cold hands and need a quick and easy fix? Then these handwarmers are just what you need!

The pattern is designed as a great my-first-knitting-project, and suitable for beginners who have just learned to cast on, knit, purl, and bind off (and if not, YouTube is your new best friend!). Working through a few simple stitch types, all you need to do is knit a rectangle, then sew it on up leaving a hole for the thumb.

Make them for yourself, your family & your friends, and make them in one colour, or as many as you like!

Gauge: 22sts x 30rows to 10cm in stocking stitch (gauge is not too crucial for these)
