The idea for this mitten came to me when I was drawing templates for my carvings. I drew a lot of different moths and I thought, why not try to make a pattern out of it. I wanted to create a warm and durable mitten knitted in a durable rusic yarn. There are two different sizes, one for small hand and one for bigger hands.
I have knitted my mittens in a 3-ply norwegian wool from Rauma. This yarn is 195m/100g. I used approx 40g in each colour for the small size
and 45g for the big size.

This pattern is designed, knitted and written by me, Nina Pommerenke.
My sister took the beautiful pictures for the pattern.
