Lus Na Tùise

Meaning Lavender in Scottish Gaelic, Lus Na Tùise feature a sweeping faux cable pattern that reminds me of the buds on a stalk of lavender, getting smaller toward the top. The twisted rib gives the mitts a very snug and neat fit and will stretch to fit a wide range of hands, and the pattern comes with two sizes. These mitts are perfect for showing off those special one-of-a-kind skeins to the best advantage.

The pattern includes both charts for the cables and written instructions, so however you like to read your patterns, you’re covered! The pattern also includes a photo tutorial for a super stretchy cast on called the Estonian cast-on for the bottom of the glove, the backward loop cast-on and the t-k2tog stitch. The pattern has been tech edited and test knitted. There’s a screenshot of the pattern, and a list of the stitches used at the bottom of the photos. These additional techniques are used: picking up stitches.
