Toast and Jam Mitts – by Emily Foden
Toast and Jam gloves are just the thing to keep your hands warm and toasty (pun intended!) through the winter months. Knit in twisted rib from the bottom up, they feature a symmetrical section of garter stitch on the palms. A simple gusseted thumb in twisted rib and nice snug fit make these gloves a quick and interesting knit. They could easily be worn on the opposite hands so that the garter stitch is more visible, it’s like 2 pairs in one!
