Blendon Woods Mitts will bring you into fall the right way with lush cables winding up the back of the hand. Stockinette palms make the knitting go quickly and ribbed trims help keep out the chill in the air. With temperatures dropping, these sport weight mitts will keep your hands cozy. Use a special skein of soft merino yarn in a solid or semi-solid color to best show off this classic cabled pattern.
