PATTERN:
See diagram M.1 to M.3. Diagrams show the pattern from RS and the pattern is worked in the round.

DECREASING TIP:
Dec as follows 2 sts before M.1: P2 tog into back of loop.
Dec as follows after M.1: P2 tog.
--------------------------------------------------------

LEFT MITTEN:
Cast on 50-50 sts on double pointed needles size 3.5 mm / US 4 with Nepal and K 1 round. Continue in rib, K2/P3. When rib measures 2 cm / 3/4'' dec all P3 to P2 = 40-40 sts. Continue in the round with K2/ P2 until rib measures 8-9 cm / 3"-3½''. Change to double pointed needles size 4 mm / US 6 and K 1 round, AT THE SAME TIME dec 6-2 sts evenly = 34-38 sts. P 1 round, K 1 round and work next round as follows: M.1 (= 2 sts), P2-3, M.2 (= 11 sts), P2-3, M.1 (= 2 sts), P11-13, M.1 (= 2 sts) and finish with P2. Continue in pattern like this – NOTE: work 2 vertical repeats of M.2, then continue to P the 11 sts in ”berry motif”. When piece measures 11-13 cm / 4½"-5" work M.3 over M.1 at the end of round for thumb (with remaining sts as before). After M.3 there are 42-46 sts on needle. Now slip the 10 sts in M.3 (= thumb sts) on a stitch holder. Continue in pattern in the round as before AT THE SAME TIME cast on 2 new sts behind the thumb on next round (P these sts as you continue) = 34-38 sts. When mitten measures approx 24-26 cm / 9½"-10 1/4" (4 cm / 1½'' remain, try mitten on for correct measurement) dec 1 st each side of M.1 each side – See DECREASING TIP (= 4 dec sts). Repeat the dec on every other round a total of 5 times. AT THE SAME TIME on last round K tog into back of loop the 2 sts in M.1 each side = 12-16 sts left on needle. On next round P2 tog across the round. Cut the thread, pull it through remaining sts, tighten tog and fasten.

THUMB:
Slip the 10 thumb sts from stitch holder back on double pointed needles size 4 mm / US 6 and pick up 6 sts behind the thumb = 16 sts. Continue in pattern as follows (make sure to have the cables over cables from before): M.1 (= 2 sts), P6, M.1 (= 2 sts) and P6. When the thumb measures approx 4-5 cm / 1½"-2" (1 cm / ½'' remain, try mitten on for correct measurement) dec 1 st each side of M.1 – See DECREASING TIP. Repeat the dec on next round AT THE SAME TIME K2 tog into back of loop in M.1 each side = 6 sts left on needle. On next round P2 tog across the round. Cut the thread, pull it through remaining sts, tighten tog and fasten.

RIGHT MITTEN:
Like left mitten, but mirrored, i.e. work round 1 after the rib and garter st as follows: P2, M.1 (= 2 sts), P11-13, M.1, P2-3, M.2 (= 11 sts), P 2-3 and M.1. And when piece measures 11-13 cm / 4½"-5" work M.3 over M.1 at beg of round for thumb (work remaining sts as before).
