DETAILS
It has been years since I designed a new pair of mitts or mittens, and with the holiday season upon us, I knew just what to cast on. These sweet little numbers got the Ooey Gooey treatment and are just the thing to keep you and your loved ones toasty thru the colder months! Version A is Fingerless Mitts with corrugated ribbing for a little extra pizzazz at the cuff, and Version B are full mittens with the welts used in the original Ooey Gooey sweater! Both versions are knit from the cuff up, in the round.

SIZES
1 (2, 3, 4)

UNSTRETCHED HAND CIRCUMFERENCE
6 (7, 8, 9)” / 15 (18, 20.5, 23) cm
Recommended fit is -0.5 to +0.5”/-1 to +1 cm of ease in circumference (when measured around the palm of the hand). Both versions are shown in size 2, worn with no ease on a 7”/18 cm hand.

YARN REQUIREMENTS
These are just approximations. Total yarn usage will depend on the yarn you use (fiber content, ply, etc.), your personal gauge, and will vary depending on hand length.
