Mrs. Lear's Mitts
These mitts have feminine picot edges and snug cabled cuffs. The hand is worked in stockinette stitch, creating a simple yet elegant feel, letting all of the attention be focused on the cuff details. The thumb gusset can be modified for a customized fit.
Instructions provided for both DK- and lace-weight versions.
Gauge (lace weight version): 34 sts and 48 rnds = 4”/10cm in stockinette stitch
