PATTERN INFORMATION
Available in 3 sizes, Four-Way Mittens are a fast and fun project. They are knit starting from the thumb that is shaped with short rows at its base. The hand is worked around the thumb, forming a ribbed square. When it reaches the desired width, the square is folded and its two sides are joined on the bind-off row.
