Product Details

Suainte means entwined in Scottish Gaelic and I love how this pattern twists and joins together, then separates and joins with another strand before coming together again. Suainte doesn't use cables, instead wrapped stitches give a trellis like appearance. The twisted rib gives the mitts a very snug and neat fit 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 and the backward loop cast-on. 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. You also need to pick up stitches.

The sample is a small mitt, worn on a 7” hand with 1.5” of negative ease.
