Can you really believe that these beauties aren’t knitted? These mittens are inspired by the Latvian and Scandinavian peoples. The pattern and the construction of the mittens reflect traditional knitted techniques, reworked and adapted for the craft of crochet.

The cuff is worked in the round, then the Front and Back are worked separately, back and forth in rows from the Cuff sts and sewn together around the outside afterwards. The thumb is worked in the round onto the sts left for thumbhole and a trim is added the edge of the Cuff.
