Two different stitch patterns combine to make a striking pair of mittens. The pattern also includes a striped, cabled pair of mittens. Yardage requirements & needle sizes are the same. Each pair uses two contrasting colors of yarn. Gauge for the striped, cabled pattern is 24/24 on size 8/5 mm needles. Two sizes are included. Large size uses the same yardage amounts. There will probably be left over yarn. <p>Note: The original yarn called for has been replaced by the recommended yarn. They are both the same yarn, with just a name change.
