A little about the mitten's design:
The thumb of the mitten is knitted a little differently than a traditional thumb. It is increased on the right and left to form a new
inside of the mitten, which makes it a little special inside. It's a very easy way to knit a thumb.
The wedge starts right after the wrist (just like the thumb does), and you then increase stitches on the palm,
on each round, instead of doing it on the wedge itself. Those stitches, 20 sts left over are the thumb. Those stitches
put on a thread and knit to the end.
