Striped Square Mitts are the final design in theStriped Square series, continuing the graphic expression of stripes and squares. Together with the socks and sweater, they form a cohesive collection where the pattern is repeated and recognized across different garments.
The mitts are worked in Rauma Finull, a 100% wool yarn that is both soft and durable. The geometric pattern creates a clear and rhythmic knitting experience, worked from charts.
The mitts are knitted in the round on double-pointed needles and feature a thumb gusset and shaped thumb for a comfortable fit. They are soft, warm, and flexible – a practical accessory that keeps your hands warm while leaving your fingers free.
