These are so easy and fast, you could whip up a whole batch as gifts in a week! The simple pattern creates the appearance of a loose gauge on one side and a tighter gauge on the other, and a super squooshy amazing fabric (especially when done in Twist.) You can easily make them longer or wider to fit just about anyone, and if you like, you can leave a thumb hole when you’re lacing them up for more of a fingerless glove.
