Take two. Okay, take ... seven?

My attempts at mitts based on the Autumn Days scarf aren't quite succeeding.  I've got a working pattern but it's a little too large.  I wouldn't have to increase for the widest part of my hand.  See the problem?  So it's frogging for me, and the starting again.  Sigh.
