What does MITTEN mean in Scrabble?
noun
A covering for the hand that encloses the thumb separately but keeps the other four fingers together in one pocket.
Unlike a glove, a mitten has no separate sheath for each finger, so it traps warmth by letting the fingers share heat with one another. Because of this simple shape, a mitten is often knitted for small children, who might otherwise lose an unpaired glove. In boxing and some other sports, a padded mitten is worn instead of a fitted glove for extra protection.
