From Hollywood Knits: These are vintage cool in an elegant camel with cream. I converted this pattern into knitting from an old Swedish crochet book. It was common in nineteenth-century Sweden to wear this kind of glove when you worked outside gathering firewood or tending animals. Today, I’m more likely to spot them on women working the trendiest spots in town.
