Fetching in Cascade 220.

These 3 patterns were published on Leslie's Blog A Friend to Knit With

• Those Mitts by Leslie Friend
• Toast by Leslie Friend
• Toasty by Leslie Friend

3 pair of Those Mitts by Leslie Friend.  Two pair have the Baby Cable Rib and one pair is as the pattern is written (far right).

I added Baby Cable Rib to my version of Those Mitts.  Directions are on one of the pages in the sidebar.  I believe it is the same as Mock Cable Rib.  No cable needle necessary!

Baby Cable Rib

The music is from the Eastern European Vocal Ensemble, Kitka.  The song is Shen Khar Venakhi ("You are a vineyard, just blossoming") from the Magnatune Christmas CD.
