#265: Finely Knitted Estonian Lady’s Gloves in Paistu Style in Light Blue and Yellow Cross Pattern and Lacy Cuffs

Knitted with two colored yarn in traditional Estonian fair-isle style. The pattern comes from Paistu area in historic Mulgi Region, nowadays Viljandi County in ESTONIA. It is a large ancient motif, depicting a cross. It is called a Cross Pattern or a Moose Horn Pattern.

Tightly knitted using 0-size needles and DK weight yarn. All the yarns are hand dyed, 100% wool from Estonia. They are perfect to block wind and wear in winter. Beautiful lacy ribbing is very elegant, like a bracelet around your wrist.

The gloves are color-worked all the way to the fingertips, which makes them warmer than average thin one-layer gloves. The yarn being rather thin makes them very comfortable to wear and they fit like a second skin.

Women’s size 8.
