We all love a coordinated set, don’t we? ? You can wear these mittens alone or combine them with the Etretat Shawlfor a perfect look. The simple stitch pattern on the back of the hands embellishes them without making them complicated. You can also work the cable pattern without the use of a cable needle, making the work much faster.

This mitts are knitted in the round. Stitches are increased for thumb gusset and then they are put on hold. When the body of the mitt is finished the live stitches are picked up again to knit the thumb in the round.
