Scintillio mitts are worked in the round, starting from the border in k1/p1 rib. The palm is worked using a simple striped slip stitch pattern with a thumb gusset for comfort. Thumbhole sts are placed on waste yarn and the body finished continuing in the slipped stitch pattern. The mitts are finished with the same 1/1 rib of the wrists. The thumb stitches are then placed back on needle and worked in the same way as the rest of the body.
