Norah Gaughan’s cables always feel like plant vines to me, meandering where they will. Here, they enfold the thumb gusset shaping and are juxtaposed with the calm of stockinette.
While the shaping directions are given in text, the cable pattern is given only chart form. The cable is borrowed from Norah Gaughan’s Knitted Cable Sourcebook (page 170, #111).
Left and right mittens are identical.
For Donna.

Skill: Intermediate—You should have some experience with cables.
