Juliet's Openwork 2x2 Rib Mitts

Openwork 2x2 Rib Lace decorates this mitt pair, a delicate 4-stitch by 6-row repeat on its upper side from cuff to fingers. Stockinette's on its reverse, simplifying the shaping of nicely-long cuffs. Mitts are worked in the round and trimmed on each end with 2x2 ribbing.
