Hello everyone!
I'm three fingers in on my first pair of knucks,
super excited,
but i have a wonder.....

i've used a mitten/ fingerless glove recipe from some book or other
(weekend knits?) that didn't do anything for the wrist, no ribbing,
no nothing, just knit it a bit longer, and let it roll, st st.....

the mittens seem to work great, stay on fine, etc. etc.
however they're made a bit bulkier than the knucks.

so.....
anyone ever make a pair with a wrist like that, maybe 4 inches of straight st st,
then bind off and let it curl? any reason why i shouldn't?

thanks!

jeremy.

Hmm... it would be pretty loose. If I were to do it that way, I would decrease or go down several needle sizes to get it to cling a bit more. You don't want a cold wrist.

Let us know how it goes!
