Storm Peak can be the windiest place on the Steamboat ski mountain. The snow swirls into beautiful bumps and whirls - perfect for a skier’s enjoyment. You can work the textures of the mountain terrain into these mittens with cables and purl bumps.

This mitten is knit in the round from the cuff to the fingertips. It begins with the narrow rib cuff. Then a purl ring that is placed right at the pivot of your wrists. The thumb gusset shaping begins as the Storm Peak pattern is worked. The Storm Peak pattern cables are reversed for the right and left mittens. After thumb gusset increase stitches are worked they are slipped to waste yarn while the hand is completed to the fingertips. The thumb is worked last.

Complete the set with the Storm Peak Hat.
