These simple but pleasing fingerless mittens are a quick and satisfying project to knit for yourself or they make a great gift for a knitworthy friend or family member.

They are knitted in DK weight yarn with a 3.25mm needle and I used less than 100g of yarn for the pair. They feature 2x2 rib, stocking stitch and a deceptively simple twisted stitch pattern. You don’t need a cable needle for these. I knit mine using the magic loop method, but they can be made on DPNs instead.
