Slouchy, rugged, and warm, these chunky mitts feature a bold diamond cable motif along the back of the hand and k3, p1 rib along the palm. To encourage the cuffs to slouch, the first few inches are worked with one size larger needle. If you prefer shorter mitts that can be completed with a single skein of yarn, begin with Row 15 of the chart instead of Row 1. The mitts will be about 9” long if you do so.
