These cozy mittens knit up quickly -- you'll want to make a pair for everyone you know!  The pattern is well-written and easy to follow.  

In week one you get comfortable with double-pointed needles (DPNs) and learn how to set up the thumb.  

In week two you make the thumb and the top of the mitten.  

Prerequisites:

Students must be comfortable with casting-on and the knit stitch. There is no prep required before the first class, although there will be homework. Class is suitable for adventurous beginners!
