Basic Twined Mittens
"These mittens are knit using an old Swedish technique called 'tvaandsstickning' or 'tvebandsstrikking' in Norwegian-- or 'two-end knitting'. This method will keep these mittens more wind resistant and surprisingly soft," says Ellis. A beautiful, educational, functional array of four sizes (toddler, not pictured, through large adult) in a gorgeous yarn await your perusal. It's a fascinating thing to do, very idiosyncratic, and we recommend it to all smart curious knitters: that is to say, all of you. Grafting required for the tops of the larger sizes. These mitts are included in a Twined Bundled Collection here.
