Product Details
Fingerless mittens are great for the transition seasons of spring and autumn. These are a quick knit with a simple zig zag cable and purl panel.
Yarn requirements: Approx 140 m / 155 yds of double knitting yarn
Note: I made my mittens from Sublime Cashmere Merino Silk DK. I just about squeezed them out of a 50g ball (the yarn requirements stated above allow for some contingency). If you use a 100% merino yarn you will probably need a second ball. Check the meterage on your ball band carefully. This pattern is suitable for any DK weight yarn that knits to the correct tension/gauge.
