Starting at the outer edge: Make a chain of 48 sts and work first 12 rows as on palm, (changing colors as needed).
Work even, do not make the chain for the thumb.

Finishing
Pin the two pieces together. Using the green yarn, starting at the cuff, sc the pieces together up the side, across tip; down 2nd side. Break yarn.
As there is no right or wrong side of crocheting, place the thumb so as to form a left mitten when pinning the pieces together.
