The Mabel Mitts were born of a desire to create a simple, classic fingerless mitt that was both easy and fun to knit. Four garter stitch ridges are placed in intervals circling the wrist, intersecting with the elegant cables that climb both sides of the hand. They are perfect for a chilly morning walk, an afternoon coffee date, or for keeping your hands warm while you surf Ravelry.
