Bobble Rib Mitts
Materials:
130 yards worsted weight yarn
set of US size 5 double pointed needles
2 markers
tapestry needle
Instructions:

Make 2 identical mitts

Cast on 42 sts and join in the rounds. Purl one round.
Work bobble rib pattern:

Rnd 1: *k 3, p 1, make bobble (p 1, k 1, p1, k 1) into next st, lift 2nd, 3rd and 4th st over 1st st, p 1*
Rnd 2: *k 3, p 1, k 1, p 1*
Rnd 3: *k 3, p 3*
Rnd 4: as rnd 2

Repeat bobble rib pattern for a total of 5 times or until cuff measures 2.5". Work another rnd 1 and rnd 2. Change to stockinette st (knit every row) for 8 rnds or for 1". Begin thumb gusset: K 20, place marker, m 1, k 1, m1, place marker. Continue knitting every round, increasing 2 gusset sts in this manner every 3rd rnd. When there are 13 gusset sts between markers, thread a length of waste yarn through tapestry needle and transfer gusset sts to work later for thumb. Cast on one st to right needle and continue knitting for 16 rnds or until mitt measures 7" from cuff. Begin working a k 3, p 1 rib pattern, increasing 2 sts evenly on first rnd. Work rib pattern for 6 rnds or until desired length.

Thumb: remove waste yarn and place gusset sts on 2 double-pointed needles. With a 3rd needle pick up 3 sts and knit 8 rnds. Bind off thumb sts.
