From the December 2018 issue
Inspired by the traditional mittens that were once knitted for woodsmen in the north of Sweden, these thick, cozy mittens make the perfect unisex gift. If made using 100% non-superwash wool and crocheted to a tight tension, they have the additional benefit of being water resistant.
