This is the ultimate collection of knitting patterns for colorful Latvian mittens, featuring 100 knitting patterns and charts. Author Ieva Ozolina has designed 33 new patterns for traditional Latvian mittens and gloves, in order to create this bumper edition of knitting patterns. Traditionally, knitting in Latvia has been very important, with children being taught how to knit from an early age at school. Brides were expected to gift hand-knitted mittens to guests at their wedding, and the designs and colors used in Latvian mitten knitting are steeped in tradition and folk lore. The traditional pointed design of Latvian mittens is very distinctive, along with the beautiful Latvian braid which is often featured in Latvian knitting designs, particularly around the cuff of mittens. The collection features 100 different patterns with large color charts for each design, so you can easily follow even the most elaborate patterns. There are instructions for the basic mitten, glove, and fingerless glove patterns, as well as step-by-step instructions and artworks for techniques such as forming the thumb, Latvian braids, and other cuff finishing techniques, including fringing and notches. All of the designs are made using stranded colorwork techniques and the same tools and materials - 2 ply 100% wool and double pointed needles - so it's perfect for using up scraps of colorful yarn you have in your stash. This bumper collection of Latvian mittens, gloves, fingerless mittens, and more will be the perfect reference for mitten knitters, providing inspiration and support so you can create your own beautiful and unique designs.
