Dalkey Mitts
Fingering-weight yarn creates nice lightweight mitts that you can use for days when the weather turns a little cooler. A single cable-and-lace panel (which matches the all-over pattern on the cowl) provides visual interest without being overwhelming. The small amount of yarn used for these mittens means you can easily knit them from the remains of the hank used for your cowl.
