Lína mittens KIT
From € 41,75
The beautiful Lína mittens by Helga Jóna make the best out of the colors of my Gilitrutt yarn. They feature an interesting opened cast one and the simple stranded knitting motif of vertical lines is an excellent introduction to the concept of color dominance! Pick up 4 Gilitrutt colors or use your yarn leftovers and you will be sure to get beautiful mittens with the colors of Iceland!
The kit contains a little project bag and enough wool to complete the mittens (and probably enough to make a second pair!).
