Last year I knit a scarf for my niece as a Christmas gift.. This year she asked me to make her some fingerless hand warmers. This a very quick and easy idea I came up with.

Step 1: Supplies

basic knitting skills
yarn
needles
darning needle
scissors
ruler

Step 2: Cast On

cast on 20 stitches
I used size 13 needles and 2 strands of yarn.
I chose a slightly heavier yarn and a slimmer yarn to match the original scarf I knit. I like to knit with mixed yarns.

Step 3: Knit

knit eac row
I like to just use a knit stitch
I like the look of rows of simple knitting.

Step 4: Knit

Knit about 30 rows
enough to wrap around the hand

Step 5: Knit

knit approx. 30 rows or 8 inches ( for a size small, give more rows for a larger hand)

Step 6: Cast Off

Cast off by knitting 2 stitches together
then return the remaining stitch to the needle and knit the next 2 stitches until all stitches are removed from needles.
