Kiperoosa mittens knitting pattern (English)
Kiperoosa is a simplified, modern take on a pair of heavily embellished traditional mittens. The techniques come from Tõstamaa and the colours are inspired by the bright and bold island of Muhu known for its floral embroidery. The flip-top option gives you modern convenience with style.
These mittens are knit from the cuff up. They feature knitted fringe and roosimine on the cuff with roosimine continuing up the back of the hand.
There is an option to make the mittens convertible with a flip top for the fingers.
