All the mitts look lovely! I doubt I will ever knit a mitts :) as it is of no use in the place I live in, unless I take a trip to the Arctic :) or any other cold place.

I am yet to read this book by Amor Towles. I like his books.

Your Almas Mitts are so lovely! The matchy matchy shots made me smile. How serendipitous! x

They are gorgeous and I love seeing them in different yarns. The cables really pop in a round yarn.

Thank you so much. Yes, you are right we need round yarn for cables to pop. This time I tried to mute it a bit with mohair. I like that effect too. :)

I appreciate seeing the effects of different yarns. It shows how important yarn structure is in getting the result you want. The mohair has a dreamy sort of brushed effect that makes the mitts look so luxurious. However, I usually wear mine walking the dogs, so I’ll be making them in a work-like yarn.
