Hjemme Mittens
From the Nordsjøen Mitten Collection, this mitten design is the first to be made available as an individual pattern.
Maritime and knitting traditions of the North go hand in hand. What better way to showcase this long-existing connection than knitting color-work mittens in the Norwegian style of ‘Selbuvotter’, graced with themes of seafaring symbolism: swallows in flight, anchors and sea spray?
The Norwegian name, Hjemme, means ‘home’ and this mitten design offers its own unique sequence of meaningful nautical elements.
This gorgeous 6-page digital booklet includes comprehensive written instructions and beautiful chart lay-outs for its individual right and left hand motifs and shares the lore behind the Hjemme mitten’s elemental features.
