A beginner’s knitting pattern for simple and lovely wristwarmers.

Two colour schemes are given here, or use the pattern as a recipe for your own colour scheme.

The mitts feature a bit of garter and stockinette stitch, as well as some decreasing and increasing. The thumb is worked using the pick-up-and-knit technique and mattress stitch seams the piece together.

I use this pattern in my Knitting Basics classes which I teach at The Stitchery Studio in Glasgow, and have additional tutorial materials if you are a beginner in need of some further help. Feel free to contact me if you would like some help!
