Run-of-the-Mill Mitts

Run-of-the-Mill Mitts

These mitts are just a basic pattern for Aran weight yarn to make fingerless mitts. I have average/medium size woman's hands and these fit my hands very comfortably. The mittens are not identical and are indeed made to fit the placement of the thumb on each hand. I have made them with ribbing at the fingers and thumb and a smooth version too.
