Spectacular views paired with the quiet of the country are the most rewarding parts of hiking for me. Darted with paths and trails, the Cheviots are one of those places that you escape to so you can catch the view of picturesque, rolling hills zigzagging in the horizon.
The single twists of cables in these mitts bring together knit and purl textures much like the Cheviot Hill valleys bridge the fields.
