For this design, I was inspired by the beautiful geometric patterns found within Bauhaus textiles. Timeless design, harmonious colors and eye-catching shapes were elements I aimed to embody within ‘Otti’.

These long mitts are worked in the round with garter-stitch trims on both edges. Bands of graphic colorwork fill up the bottom length and top trim, broken up by stockinette stitch. ‘Otti Mitts’ are perfect for when you need an extra cosy edge to your fall outfits. Keep your wrists toasty while you type, text and of course, knit!
