[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Celtic Cable fingerless mitts

[Cathy Flesher]

Hi Tracy,

Oh, I really like the celtic knot pattern. I would certainly like to try making these fingerless gloves.

Dixie taught a number of cable patterns during her last year’s dishcloth class and they were quite interesting. I will download this pattern and let you know how it goes. Hopefully, I will not drop stitches. For whatever reason, I am pretty good with a cable needle. I like the J shaped one because the yarn stays on it better than on some other shaped cable needles. Which shaped cable needle do you like?
Thanks for sharing the pattern.



May God bless you.
