Inspired by the BLUE SKY of Ocracoke Island, North Carolina, these mitts are close fitting, warm and perfect for turning pages of your book out on the deck this fall. They’re worked from the wrist cuff up. You’ll incorporate simple cables for a beautiful design that flows right from the ribbing on the wrist cuffs and into the fingertip ribbing. You’ll finish the thumb with ribbing, or leave it as a thumb hole- your choice. There’s a chart for the cable design as well as written instructions.
