DESIGN
Designed to compliment my Snowbird Scarf perfectly. These delicate mitts are worked in the round from the bottom-up. Simple 3-stitch cables hug long, narrow bands of slipped knit stitches. Both mitts are worked the same and feature a stockinette thumb gusset. The pattern is written in ONE ADULT SIZE that will fit an average adult-sized hand circumference. See finished measurements below. Try going up or down in needle sizes for larger or smaller mitts. The pattern is charted and also includes separate, row-for-row written instructions. All repeat sections appear in bold, italicized print for easy reading.
