Friends Mitts

These simple mitts made a few years ago were knit for a friend by designer Dani Sunshine and he loved them. Since then, she has made two pairs for herself: both have been pinched by her teenage son! Dani now says that she has come to the conclusion that these mitts are made to be given away, so she's called them Friends.

These are quick and simple to make, look great in any DK weight yarn, and are sure to be loved and worn out. Make a pair for yourself, and be prepared for them to be pilfered!
