That depends on the thickness of your yarn, the size of the needles, and how tightly you knit. Make a gauge swatch about four inches square. Measure the width of the square and divide your number of stitches by the number of inches (in decimal form). That tells you how many stitches are in each inch. Now measure around your hand. Subtract 15% from that measurement, then multiply it by your stitches per inch. That will tell you how many stitches to cast on for hand warmers. You may be wondering why we subtacted 15%. This is to give the hand warmers "negative ease." We want them to be a little clingy so they don't slide around or fall off, so we make them a wee bit smaller than our hands. Don't worry, knitting is stretchy, so it won'd bind or be uncomfortable.

∙ 12y agoIt depends on the yarn and how long you want your piece to be.
Make a gauge patch (knit a square about 4"x4"). Lay a ruler on your work horizontally and count how many stitches are in 4". (If the square wound up smaller than 4", use 3" instead).
Now you have a ratio 4" (or 3") : n stitches.
Stitches to cast on = (desired length * n)/4 (or 3)
