Product Details

Cuibhrichte, meaning bound in Scottish Gaelic, is a stocking stitch mitt with a drop stitch braid which circles the mitt from wrist to index finger, binding you with a soft chain. With a simple elegance these mitts are a quick and easy knit and with six sizes they’ll fit everyone from teen to adult.

The pattern is fully written instructions and also includes a photo tutorial for a super stretchy cast on called the Estonian cast-on for the bottom of the glove, and the backward loop cast-on, the Drop Stitch Braid and Chain Stitch used to join the two chains at the wrist. 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: cables and picking up stitches.
