BY LAUREN RAD
In springtime, the first warm days cause all sorts of greenery and blooms to push their way up through the earth and climb along walls. The cables on these mitts remind me of a trellis filled with clematis blooms. These mitts are graded to three sizes and feature a mix of coin lace, cables, and bobbles climbing up the back of each hand. I knit them in the Daffodil colorway of this yarn base, and so I named them for that cheerful yellow.
