Stella Mittens
The Stella mitten is a traditional Scandinavian mitten, knitted in colourwork with wool yarn. It has a sophisticated and well crafted cuff that is knitted with a provisional cast on, a lining, picot folded border and a corrugated rib in two colours. The mitten has a thumb gusset and a pointed top and a different colourwork pattern on the inside than on the outside.
After knitting the mitten, horisontal embroidered chain stitches are added for decoration on the cuff. The pattern is described in text as well as charted.
There are also instructions for making a half mitten.
