Oh these look great! I've been looking for a quick pair of mittens. I think I'll work on them sometime "soon". Thanks for sharing the pattern! I also enjoyed the rest of your blog :)

I love these! Don't you just love bulky mittens?! They're super fast to make up and oh so warm.
Q: To m1, do you think kfb would be ok? That's how Im going to do it, but I'm curious as to what you think works best with bulky yarn.
Thanks for sharing your pattern. I just had to fav it on rav :-D
Karen - I prefer the raised bar method of M1 for these mittens, but I *think* K1fb would be ok. Let me know how it works out!
When you say "knit 3, k2tog around" -- am I knitting 3, then ktog, then knitting 3, then ktog to the end of the round, or am I knitting 3, then k2tog, k2tog, k2tog, k2tog, until I get to the end of the round?

To answer your questions you are going to want to K3, K2tog, K3, K2tog, etc. Sorry I wasn't more clear.
