For “Cable-Lovers” everywhere, this is a fun fingerless mitt pattern. There are two distinct cables in the mitt. Both of them are Alpine Cables, making them a bit different than the usual Aran cables. Further, both of these cables are unique in that they are fairly “delicate” cables in which all the knit stitches in the cables are knit through the back loop. The thumb gusset assures that you have maximum movement. If you love knitting cables, these long fingerless mitts will be fun for you to both make and wear and will allow you to text, type and knit in style and warmth.

These mitts are knit using two circular needles, and the stitches are both charted and written out line by line.

Skill Level: Intermediate - Intermediate + (assuming a basic knowledge of knitting, purling, cabling, and increasing and decreasing).

The sample was expertly pattern tested by Jude, who can be reached at: uputats@gmail.com, and who is known on Ravelry as uputat. The mitts were knit using Lorna’s Lace Shepherd Sport yarn in colorway Dobson.
