Just a Mitt

The Just a Mitt pattern is five patterns in one. There are patterns for fingerless mitts knit in four yarn weights (light bulky, chunky, light super bulky and super bulky), and a full mitten knit with super bulky. The mitt uses the same pattern for each hand. It includes a thumb gusset and corrugated ribbing is used in the cuff of all versions, and the upper edge of the fingerless versions. Each pattern is very adjustable and has suggestions on how to make them a little bigger or smaller. To make a coordinated set with a headband, beanie, bonnet, or even crown, check out my other patterns using corrugated ribbing. The full mitten has a uniformly tapered edge at the top with a gradual decrease that enhances the fit. The mitts can be knit in two or three colors. The corrugated ribbing is done in three colors, the body can be done in one of the colors used for the ribbing, or a new color.
