Another pair of Latvian Mittens

Here is a picture of my progress on a pair of Latvian mittens for me. I created a pair of plain navy mittens which are now becoming the liner of my beautiful new mittens. 


 As I began to knit the outer mitten I noticed that the braiding is not as neat as my pattern makes it look. I can see the purl bump between the two parts of the braid, and I'm not liking the look. I must be missing something!

Also, I made a pair of mittens last year for my daughter and the braid seems to look just fine.

Hard to tell from this, but it does seem to be more of the finish I was looking for.
