Kanske den traditionellaste av vantar med stjärnmönster. Åttabladsrosen, stjärnan, återkommer i textila mönster över hela världen men förknippas kanske helst med vår nordiska textila sticktradition.
En vante i damstorlek du stickar i nordiskt ullgarn, perfekt för dig själv eller som julklappsvantar.

Maybe the most traditional of nordic mittens, the one with stars. The star, also called “åttabladsros” (a rose with eight petals) are present in textile traditions all over the world but maybe mostly connected to nordic knitting tradition.

A mitten in a normal woman´s size preferable knitted in a nordic wool dk yarn from Sandnes or Rauma. Perfect or yourself or maybe as a christmas gift?

Note, that you will need 2 balls of the main color.
