Curling Neckwarmer and Mitts

Classic architectural detail sets off this fingerless mitt and neckwarmer set in two sizes (S/L), to knit in fine, soft sock yarn. The mitts are sculpted to fit like a second skin, while the neckwarmer is relaxed. The seemingly complex cable pattern is a surprisingly simple motif.

Suggested Yarns:
Modern Deco Lace, Better Breakfast Fingering, Stone Soup Fingering, Shetlandia Fingering, Jacob Fingering, or any soft-spun sock yarn which has 450-500 yards per 100 grams

Substituting yarn and/or needles may result in an overall variation in size.
