Warm cosy mittens with an easy to work bobbly cable running up the back.

Longer than the average mitten they will keep wrists warm.

Although knitted on two needles thay could easily be knitted on circular or four/five needles for a more professional finished look and avoid sewing up.

The Debbie Bliss luxury Donegal Tweed was used as an alternative and anything with an approximate tension of 24 rows X 18 stitches could probably be substituted. Two X 50g balls of yarn are required.
