Deliciously thick and warm, these mittens in three sizes (S/M/L) are a must-have for outdoor winter adventures. Seed stitch elements combine with simple cable crosses in a panel that stretches from cuff to tip. A deep seed stitch cuff complements the cable texture and keeps snow from creeping in. May be worked with a single or double cuff (instructions for both included). Modeled with the matching Seedbox Cap.
