Ladies size Knitting method through trial and error The most difficult part was maintaining the strength of the base of the thumb, which is the part that moves the most, and integrating the outer material and lining. We made countless prototypes until we were able to create a ribbed mitten that we were satisfied with, such as threads coming out, holes that frayed, and lining sagging. We sought to find the optimal balance by adjusting the stitch size and stretch so that there is no difference in the width of the inner and outer fabrics, and the mittens smoothly follow the movements of the person’s thumb. We hope you will find it comfortable to wear without touching your skin.
