TESTIMONIALS
“Everything is laid out easy to read and understand.”
“Quick”
“Wonderfully written and designed pattern. Very quick and enjoyable knit!”
“This was a quick, easy knit, perfect for a last minute gift. It was fun to see the cable pattern develop.”
“Thanks for this beautiful pattern! It was a fun and fast knit, my husband is going to have warm hands.”
“Very soft and warm mittens! Excited to make more for Christmas stocking stuffers”
“It is a fast knit and creates a beautiful and unusual pattern”

“I enjoyed making the mittens very much and plan to make more to ward off the cold for those who must help the little ones outside this winter. I may try to figure out how to make some child sized.”

“This pattern knits up so quick and easy you could easily make gifts for all your friends even if you procrastinate, like I tend to do. The one thing I love about this pattern, that I’m not sure I’ve seen before, is on the cable rounds.  It actually tells you the amount of Knit stitches you need to do at the end of the row, rather than just say K to end of round. I tend to count every stitch every row, as I’m always afraid I missed something and would rather catch it sooner rather than later. This was helpful to me to let me know I had the correct stitch count every row.”

ABOUT THE PATTERN
A fun, simple pattern, the Cozy in the Mountains Mittens are thick, warm, and cozy. The design is minimalistic with a touch of interest using a large off-centered cable (meant to look like mountains) on the outer back edge of each hand. The knit is very quick and enjoyable, making it a perfect gift knit. Learn more about the design inspiration, knitting experience, and wearing experience here.
