ACORN Mitts - a knitting pattern by fil-art-aue

Lined up like acorn caps on a string, the small, O-shaped cables are embedded in a Rib Pattern.

The ACORN MITTS with their simple and straight design can be combined to your garments without any problems. Due to the stretchy pattern, they fit perfectly without slipping. They are knitted in a simple Cable-Rib-Pattern, with thumb gusset and open thumb. And don’t worry about the cables! No extra cable needle is needed to cross the stitches, which makes knitting very comfortable! Pattern is both, charted and written!
