These gloves are based on an old pair of gloves knitted for an engaged couple. It was common for a bride to knit gloves for her fiancé and sometimes also for his relatives.

De här vantarna är baserade på ett par vantar som gavs som färstmansgåva. Det var vanligt att bruden stickade vantar till sin fästman och ibland hela hans släkt.
