PATTERN NOTES 
The Diamanté mitts are worked in the round from the cuff up. The stranded colorwork patterning is different on palm, back of hand, and the thumb just to keep things interesting. A single cable in the contrast color panel runs up the center of the back of the hand and is worked via twisted cables.
