After the Arm Knit Scarf and the Moss Stitch Headband I decided to do a pair of simple fingerless mittens to match. I used size 10mm needles again, and nearly a whole skein of 50g. I know they don't exactly look like store bought, but they look quite cute :)

Instructions:
Cast on 14 stitches.

For the cuff:
  • Uneven rows, starting Row 1: K2, P2 across
  • Even rows, starting Row 2: P2, K2 across
  • Repeat to have 6 rows in all.

Continue with moss stitch pattern: 
  • Row 1: add stitch, K1, P1 across
  • Row 2: add stitch, K1, P1 across (you should have 16 stitches by now)
  • Uneven rows, starting Row 3: K1, P1 across
  • Even rows, starting Row 4: P1, K1 across
  • Repeat Row 3,4 to have 10 rows in all. 

For the upper cuff:
  • Row 1: knit 2 together, K1, P2, K2, P2, K2, P2, K1, K2 together
  • Row 2: P2, K2 across
  • Repeat Row 2 to have 6 rows in all.

Cast off stitches. Fold in half and sew along one side, making sure to leave a hole for the thumb.
