♫ The Music ♫
BrunuhVille is a Portuguese composer who, according to his site, “creates a world of magic and fantasy between the fusion of Gothic, orchestral, Celtic, folk, movie, ethnic and world music.” The intricately melodic tunes from his Tales from the Lost Kingdom have inspired the Lost Kingdom series of designs.

The Pattern
These fingerless gloves are knit in the round beginning at the cuff. The mirrored cable panels which are positioned toward the outer edge of each glove flow from ribbing at the cuff while the remainder of the cuff edging is worked in Garter stitch. Stitches outside the cable panels are worked in Stockinette stitch. A bit of shaping is added just before the top ribbing for a great fit. Thumbs are worked in Stockinette stitch and end in ribbing as well.

Pattern Notes
The instructions are presented in side-by-side column format i.e. instructions for the left mitt are shown in the left-hand column and the instructions for the right mitt are shown in the right-hand column. When directions are the same for both, text is shown in one column that spans across the page. This format is especially convenient for knitters who like to knit 2-at-a-Time.

The cable pattern is both charted and written out.
