Davoch Mitts by Ysolda Teague
Rauma Finullgarn
Embrace the rich tradition of stranded colorwork with the Davoch mitts by Ysolda Teague. Beautiful & functional, the design is inspired by Norwegian Selbu mittens, as well as an Estonian garment pattern. Ysolda has designed the mitts to be a creative opportunity to really explore & have fun with color.
The mitts may be worked in two contrasting colors for a more Nordic feel or bring in additional colors for each section, reminiscent of Latvian & Estonian designs.
One of the best yarns for stranded colorwork, Rauma Finullgarn is spun in Northern Norway with 100% Norwegian wool. The mill has been operational since the early 1900’s creating incredible heritage yarns.
Materials:
The mitten pattern is sized S-XL. It is worked in the round.
