Looking for a quick knit or the perfect pairing to the Reinrose Hat? You’ve found it! These aran weight Norwegian style mittens have a classic colorwork motif. Reinrose, Norwegian for Mountain Avens, or Holtasóley in Icelandic, is an eight petal Arctic–alpine flowering plant in the Rose family. It’s also the National Flower of Iceland!
