Product Details
Vletta:old Norse for „to wattle“ or „to weave baskets“
The pattern combines mosaic knitting with the intarsia technique to create a single-coloured, textured insert that runs through the basketweave. The insert continues as a ribbed stripe along the edge of the hand to provide a good fit. Colours can be reversed or kept the same for both mitts.
Skills required: Knitting and purling flat and in the round over a small circumference, right- and left-leaning increases and decreases, working with slipped stitches to create a mosaic pattern, intarsia in the round. Pattern includes chart and written instructions for the mosaic basketweave and a photo tutorial for the intarsia technique.
Alternative version without intarsia: You like the look of the mosaic cuff - but not the additional challenge of the intarsia technique? Notes are included in the pattern to help you with the necessary modifications.
Sample shown in Malabrigo Sock, but can be made with any other fingering-weight or sock yarn.
