Saltire Mitts
Inspired by Scotland
I love playing with everyday things and suddenly seeing
them as something else. The Saltire works perfectly as
a mitten pattern. These mittens are knitted flat, using
intarsia. The hand-dyed yarn if you choose to buy it will have variations but we love that for our complete glove anarchy!

Recommended Yarn:
The yarn is hand dyed by Skein Queen, Desire, DK / 8 ply (11 wpi) 100% merino, DK weight yarn, dyed in the UK, machine wash on cool cycle
The hand dyed yarn will have variations but we love that for our complete glove anarchy.
