This is a very simple baby mitten pattern, that can be whipped up in an evening or two. It is designed to fit a baby with a wrist measurement of between 10 - 12 cm, with a little room for growing. Layering the long cuff over garments and under coats will help keep it in place on little hands.

The mittens are knit in the round, and then grafted together at the finger tips. They are joined together using a crochet chain or I-cord.
