Knitting kit for Elvira mittens with cable pattern
We have designed these pretty mittens with beautiful cables. We have worked the mittens in our own sustainable merino wool; Önling No 2. We have been inspired by the beautiful techniques of the Aran sweaters and have made 2 patterns with cable twists. One has a nice cable with several different sizes of cables, and the other is a 'fake twist', which is knitted without a needle. The mittens can be knitted in many variants and is the perfect gift
This kit contains yarn for the hat as well as a digital pattern.
Pattern was a part of Önling Advent Calendar 2020

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- When you buy a kit for ALL designs from PetiteKnit's, you will receive a printed, pattern together with your yarn, as we are unfortunately not allowed to sell Petite Knits' patterns digitally.
- When you buy a kit for a design from selected books (e.g. Helga Isager), you sometimes have to buy the book separately, in cases where the patterns are not released to be sold separately. It will always be clearly described in the product title, with for example "xx kit, excluding pattern", when the pattern is not included.
- All patterns from Isager are delivered as a printed pattern, as we do not have access to sell these digitally. You will receive your pattern along with your yarn shipment.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
