They are knit using bulky weight yarn with only 27 stitches per round....which is really fast compared to socks (or even hats!)
I am using Cadena from Knit Picks in the Neptune colorway. It's a Wool of the Andes, Alpaca blend. Here's what mitt #1 looks like up to the point where we start to form the thumb gusset.
I like the k2p1 twisted faux cable stitch. (It reminds me of the twisted faux cable I did on the socks I sent to the state fair. You might remember them as the socks with the pooling issue.)
Happy knitting!

I made a pair of fingerless gloves in twisted rib, and they came out perfectly. Yours look great, too.
