Lets knit these simple but really fun mitten with Jane Steeves
Want to knit mittens but don't want to worry about the thumb gusset? Or have never made mittens before. Then Newfie mittens are for you! You can knit them using double points or using magic loop. It is a simple but fun pattern that looks harder than it is. For your thumb you use some waste yarn for the stitches that will later become your thumb and then continue with the mittens. After the mitten is complete we go back and pick up the thumb stitches and create your thumb. These mittens are super warm and look like you worked hard to make them. Everyone will be impressed, and you'll know that they are super easy!
