    Hi! Love the video!
    I've never attempted mittens before… As a matter of fact, I'm fairly new to knitting in general, I was wondering if it would be possible to make these mittens with a total of only four 4.00mm needles? 1) If possible how would I go about making the thumb hole? 2) how should I adjust the number of stitches (I'm aiming for the size of a male's hands, do I need to make any adjustments to the number of stitches at all if I'm using larger needles?)

    it is difficult to see how thick Your yarn is in the video? I tried to knit these mittens but they ended up being too small. Only thumb came out right. My hand size is 19cm so i was just wondering are you using a yarn that is very thick.

    Hi, I finally did my first pair of mittens, but I have a question: How many rounds do you do when decreasing 2 stitches on each side, before knitting 2 together? Ok I just saw the answer :)I also wanted to know, where it says to start decreasing after 30 stitches, are you counting from the cuff or from the thumb?

    Why does it show the first beginning row of knitting then skip to an almost finished wrist? As a beginner we need to see how to go step by step needle to needle. Also with no audio and the assumption that we know what knit 2 purl 2 means, make this not seem like beginner to me at all. Its impressive just not explanitory not fluid. 8 stitches on first needle then wrist… I am already lost. lol.
