Nightblooming Mittens

Whether you’re a science and tech geek who happens to cast spells in her spare time, or just someone looking for a bit more challenge in your knitting life, these light mittens are here for you. A repeating leafy cabled pattern blooms gently along your hands, adding both beauty and warmth to your cool days. Written in two sizes, pattern modifications are also suggested for working these as fingerless mitts for those in-between seasons.
