Though I’m more of a glove person myself, I know that mittens are actually better for keeping your hands warm, and they’re a lot more approachable for knitters of all skill levels who might think all those fingers are just too fiddly (I felt the same way until I actually knit some).
Gina Michele has a fun pattern for Garter Stitch mittens knit flat. They’re actually a really clever design that looks like it might not work, but when you fold and sew them up just so they make cute and cozy mittens in no time.
Have you ever knit mittens flat like this? I’d love to hear about it.
