Mitts are a great way to practice small circumference knitting.  Generally made with thicker yarn and larger needles than socks, fingerless mitts in particular work up quickly and rib patterns such as the one in this design fit a variety of hand sizes.  Join us and work through these mitts - they are a great first project for making a shaped thumb gusset.
