Buska Mittens and Cowl Set - Pattern Only - Digital Pattern in English/Norwegian - Norwegian mittens - Norwegian design

** This listing is for the pattern only**

Norwegians like to relax by enjoying the outdoors. Our mittens and cowls are therefore essential to keep our hands and neck warm and toasty and that is why I decided to team up with a talented Norwegian designer to bring you these beautiful mittens and cowl set. The pattern that Steepfield Knits designed is called Buska Mittens and Cowl (Buskavotter og Buskahals in Norwegian). I hope you will enjoy creating your own Norwegian inspired mittens and cowl and that you will be transported to a happy, peaceful, joy-filled magical place as we are when we adventure outdoors.

The recommended yarn is the following from Fjord Fibres:

Yarn Base : Trollfjord sock    

Composition: 80% Wool / 20% Polyester

Yarn weight: Fingering

Yarn length:

 100g = 350m/380 yards            50g = 175m/190yards

Guage : 10cm= 24-26 sts

Recommended needle size: 2,5mm - 3,5mm (1.5 - 4 US)

Trollfjord sock base is durable enough for socks yet soft enough to use for shawls, hats, mittens and garments or even children´s clothing. It contains non-superwash wool but you can still machine wash on a wool program at 30 degrees with a detergent specifically for wool. However I always prefer to handwash my knitwear in general. Dry flat and do not tumble dry. I have used professional acid dyes and thoroughly washed and rinsed this yarn with a gentle wool wash detergent. I do however recommend washing items separately for the first couple of washes as very minimal colour bleeding may occur.
