Description

The Huron Wristers pattern was inspired by the colourwork pattern of a pair of knitted gloves in the collection of the Huron County Museum & Historic Gaol in Goderich, Ontario. The worsted weight wool seen in the samples is from Steele Wool Farm, near Blyth, Ontario, however any worsted weight wool will work nicely for these fingerless mitts.

Featuring a simple cast-off thumb open and 2x ribbed cuffs, these wristers are perfect for keeping your hands warm and your fingers free. Suitable for beginner to experienced knitters.

Inspired by a pair vintage knitted gloves in the collection of the Huron County Museum & Historic Gaol, the mitts feature a recreation of the gloves’ colourwork design. The colourwork motifs are similar to both the Shetland Fair Isle pattern, ‘Little Flowers’ as well as the Estonian pattern, ‘Cat’s Paw’.

These fingerless wool mittens are great for someone needing a bit of warmth and to keep their fingers free for various tasks around the farm, office or studio.
