These mittens are a little bit of a bold twist on a classic. They feature a striking braided cable motif that runs across the back of each hand—adding just enough interest without being too complicated. They’re a great option for gift knitting or treating yourself. Inspired by the wandering path of rivers, the cables wind across each mitten adding structure, movement, and warmth.

Pattern is available in a single column or two column format.
