Knitted with three colored yarn in traditional Estonian fair-isle style. The pattern comes from Petseri area in Setoland, ESTONIA. It is an ancient pattern from Setoland. Tightly knitted using 0-size needles and DK weight yarn. The pink yarns are hand dyed. The off-white is natural sheep color, all 100% wool from Estonia. They are perfect to block wind and wear in winter. Beautiful triangular 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 approx 7-8. -
