To celebrate this release, everything in my pattern store is 40% off through the end of the weekend, including this pattern. Use the code: SNOWBIRD at checkout. This code can be used as many times as you wish.

DESIGN
Designed to compliment my Snowbird Scarf perfectly. These delicate mitts are worked in the round from the bottom-up. Simple 3-stitch cables hug long, narrow bands of slipped knit stitches. Both mitts are worked the same and feature a stockinette thumb gusset. The pattern is written in ONE ADULT SIZE that will fit an average adult-sized hand circumference. See finished measurements below. Try going up or down in needle sizes for larger or smaller mitts. The pattern is charted and also includes separate, row-for-row written instructions. All repeat sections appear in bold, italicized print for easy reading.
