These knit up really quick! Super quick! Like buy the yarn and make them as gifts quick!

The yarn can be purchased at Knit Happens in Scottsdale if you are in the area.

And they are definitely a beginner level project.

yarn:

one ball ella rae “latte” (yarn A) (any chunky weight yarn-i’ve used cascade 128 too)

one ball OnLine Linie 248 Cico (yarn B) (this yarn is a little hard to find-another great choice is Sublime’s Wooly Merino!)

needles:

size 7 (knit flat, but if you are into it, feel free to knit in the round)

Instructions (make two):

cast on 26 stitches with yarn A using the cable cast-on method.

Row 1: K2, P1 repeat to end

Row 2: P2, K1 repeat to end

Repeat rows 1 & 2 for 23 more rows ending with a right side row.

Next row (WS), change to yarn B.

Purl across.

Continue in garter stitch, purling every row for five more rows.

Bind off loosely.

Seam the side using the mattress stitch leaving approximately 2 1/4″ for a thumb opening.
