Design
Designed to match the Snowberry Hat from my Cozy Cables book.

Inspired by the frozen berry bushes that decorate the landscape in the snowy Blue Mountains in the Pacific Northwest. 2-stitch cabled branches and bobbles travel along a reverse stockinette background up the center of these mittens. These are worked in the round from the cuff up and feature a thumb gusset. This pattern is charted and includes separate written instructions. Pattern is written in one average adult size.
