Mittens from fingers to rib?????

[Knitting Lene]

Hi!

Has anyone here tried to knit a mitten from the fingertips and to the rib (top to bottom) just like the socks you can see in the youtube link?

 

 

I'm a member of a Danish hobby and needlework site where some of us are trying to see if we are able to do it. The start of it we can find out. But the thumb?? Can we make a hole and pick up the stitches when we have finisted the rest of the mitten. Do we need to increase and decrease some of the stitches??

 

Can somebody help us, please!!

 

Thanks ahead!!

I'm busy knitting them still and I knitted the thumbs like the rest of the mittens. I have now knitted the thumbs on the mittens and I'm decreasing them by knitting 1 stitch from the thumb together with 1 stitch from the mitten.

 

Soon I will make the rib 1 knit and 1 purl.

Can't wait to see pics when it's done!
