Mittens with tiny cables running from the bottom to the top. Knitted in round using magic loop method, you can easily make two-at-a-time or one by one. Very easy and fast knitting once you get the “system” :) Pattern written for adult medium size. The sample knitted in Drops Puna DK yarn, it calls for 4 mm (US 6) but I used 3.25 mm (US 3). It took less than two skeins of yarn - 80 g. I highly recommend making a swatch to check the gauge.
