Maples

The rich color palette of the changing maple leafs inspired the dyer to this colorway.
And this colorway inspired me to design these lovely gauntlets. Indian summer and its powerful reds, browns and oranges are kept in this yarn.
The lacy leaf chain motive at the gauntlets side adds a feminine touch and the structured maple leaf needs a second glance.

Wear the gauntlets with the maple leaf at the palm side or at the outside.

The gauntlets are knitted in rounds.
