Tell a friend, “I’m so glad our paths crossed!” by gifting a pair of these fingerless mitts. Or show yourself some love!

Fingerless mitts incorporate an unusual ribbed cable pattern that flows organically from cuff to top ribbing. Cable pattern is explained fully in the pattern.

Size small fits women’s small to medium and size large fits women’s large or men’s size

Materials
100-120 yards of Cascade 220 Worsted or other worsted weight yarn
Size 7 (4.5mm) needles: 32” or longer circular for Magic Loop or DPNs as desired (or size to get gauge)
Size 5 (3.75mm) needles (or two sizes smaller than larger needles)
Cable Needle
Tapestry needle
Stitch Markers

Gauge
20sts/26 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch, unblocked. Mitts are stretchy due to the ribbed cable, so gauge is somewhat forgiving. As long as you’re close, you should be fine.

Pattern has been test-knit and tech edited.
