Hitodama are part of the ebook Ghosts: historiographies, cultural manifestations, and the knits they’ve inspired.

Inspired by the mysterious lights often associated with ghosts cross-culturally, Hitodama make use of the dense linen stitch to give them extra warmth. The beautiful, hopeful, dancing blue flame decorates the back of the left mitt, creating an asymmetrical look for this cold-weather accessory.
