Into the Woods Mittens – Hand knitting kit

kr250.00 Incl. VAT

Designed by textile designer Elmina Fors in January 2024, the pattern is different from Elmina’s other passion – machine-knitted garments in countless colors and detailed patterns. Here, Elmina has scaled down the knitted expression to the most classic techniques – purl and straight stitches. This is to highlight Yllebruk’s fantastic wool yarn and the natural texture & color changes it carries. The detailed, drawn pattern together with knitting instructions and explanatory pictures make it easy for both beginners and experienced knitters to create beautiful and durable mittens.

This kit includes pattern & 100g Swedish wool yarn for 1 pair of mittens. Do you need knitting needles? Sock knitting needles in bamboo can be found here. For the Till Skogs pattern you need 5 x 3mm size needles.

The Wool

The knitting kit includes 100g of Swedish single-ply wool yarn from Yllebruk in Järvsö. The yarn is a mix of Finull and Gotlandsfår which gives the yarn a soft touch and natural colour & texture variations. The sheep are cut twice a year and spun at Ull & Piano wool spinners on Gotland. So, 100% Swedish wool! These mittens are knitted with two strands of the single-ply yarn, making them soft and warm for any winter outings!

Washing

When you have knitted the mittens and attached all the threads, wash with a little wool detergent in cool water, rinse and squeeze out of the water. In order for the mitt to get the right shape – use a mitt blocker or shape the mitt by hand when it is wet. Allow to air dry. Information about this can be found in the printed knitting pattern.
