Luna Mittens from Tante Grøn are knitted in a luxurious blend of one strand Cashmere and one strand Soft Silk Mohair, making them both soft and lightweight. Knitting mittens is a pleasure and a practical project that allows you to create something unique for yourself or someone you care about. The simple cable pattern requires no cable needle and is fun to work with. The yarn combination gives the mittens not only a beautiful sheen, but also wonderful volume in the cables. In the pattern you’ll find tutorial videos for each step, so everyone, regardless of skill level, can join in and knit along.
