Lady Mint

These ladylike mitts feature a cable that runs along both sides of the thumb and converge to one cable at the wrist. The extra thumb wedge makes them especially suited for people with slender wrists (or larger hands).

These mitts are crocheted using slip stitches. The cable is created horizontally, a technique I invented.

In the 23 pages pattern, you learn with lots of step photos
