i've been on a fingerless mitten binge as of late. i haven't been using a pattern but go by length instead.
pattern:
cast on a multiple of four. (36 stitches on size 8 needles)
knit in rib stitch for the arm/wrist portion (k2, p2) for 4+ inches
switch to stockinette stitch for the palm portion (alternate k rows and p rows) for 2.5 inches
back in rib stitch (k2, p2) for 1 inch.
bind off in rib stich
sew up the side leaving a hole for the thumb!
these make great gifts and are super easy and quick to knit.
