The Sutton Heights Mitts are also available on Payhip

One of my favorite times of the year is the holidays and gift knitting. What is more perfect than the Sutton Height Mitts featuring garter texture, a chunky horseshoe cable going up the middle with a folded down top rib, and knit up in aran weight yarn? For the last-minute gift knitter, this is sure to be a quick knit as well as a great stash dive to keep your loved one’s hands nice and toasty during the holiday season!
