Men's Double Knitting/8ply Gloves/mittens pattern?

#Post

Knitting fingerless gloves ladies, pattern has 44 sts knitted in rounds. I added two more stitches so I could knit it on two needles. Patterns I have looked at for men in the usual free places do not seem to have enough stitches. Thanks for your help.

Look on Ravelry for World’s simplest mitts by Tincanknits - it’s a free pattern and goes from toddler to large adult.
If you want to make them fingerless just go to the length of fingers and thumb you want and instead of shaping do a few rows of rib then cast off.
