I've been yearning to design a pair of mittens, but have been avoiding the process, telling myself it would be too complicated to write up in a pattern. However, unbeknownst to me, thumbless mittens are trending and all negative thoughts went out the window. I jumped on the thumbless mitten wagon and decided to design a Mainely Hooked pair. Obviously I had to add the Mainely Ridged touch while designing these babies, and love the look of the finished product. Once again this is a quick and easy pattern-one mitten took me about an hour to whip up. I hope you all enjoy, don't forget to share/tag your creations on my Mainely Hooked Facebook and Instagram page.
