These mittens are made one at a time, and worked from the bottom up.

This pattern can be knit in the round in two different ways. Instructions are included for double point needles and the magic loop. Pick your favorite method to knit in the round, then follow the instructions that match your chosen needles.

Materials

You will make these gloves with Caron Simply Soft YarnDouble Point Needles, and/or circular needles (optional).

You can substitute almost any worsted weight yarn in this pattern successfully; just check your gauge before you start. I’ve found that Malabrigo Rios, a merino wool yarn, makes an excellent substitute yarn for this pattern.

Skills
