Camelot by Sabine Riefler

Two joined rings for enduring friendship encircled by a symbol of the round table, surrounded by merlons echo the myth of Camelot.

Cables are very hip this winter, but they also make a garment a classic. These mitts combine both twisted stitches and classic cabling and are an ideal project for cable beginners, but will not bore an expert either. The twisted rib pattern ensures a perfect fit.

Wear these mitts with the palmside out for a new look or knit a pair in only the cuff pattern. Make them in different colors and change your winter outfit in an instant. Only one skein is needed to knit them!

They make a wonderful Christmas present that does not take too long to make, but tells the recipient how much you appreciate her (or him).
