Dromanach

£5.50

Dromanach, meaning ridges in Scottish Gaelic, is a simple fingerless mitts pattern with garter stitch detail up the outside of the hand and around the thumb. They are perfect for showing off those special yarns, especially speckled and variegated yarns. With a simple elegance, these mitts are a quick and easy knit and with six sizes they’ll fit everyone from teen to adult.

The pattern is fully written instructions and also includes a photo tutorial for a super stretchy cast on called the Estonian Cast-On for the bottom of the glove and the backward loop cast-on. The pattern has been tech edited and test knitted. There’s a screenshot of the pattern, and a list of the stitches used at the bottom of the photos. These additional techniques are used: picking up stitches.
