Meadow Mill is a pair of mitts named for an iconic Baltimore mill that, when built in the late 1800s, boasted a striking belfry, landscaped paths, and tidy gardens. At its height, the mill produced 80% of the world’s cotton duck, twine, yarn, lampwick, sheeting, shirting and calico. The mitts’ slip-stitch patterning evokes a brocade-like texture, much like the finely-milled fabrics of long ago.
The slip-stitch patterns is both written and charted.
