River
£6.00
River is inspired by the gentle movement of a woodland stream. The flowing three-stitch cables suggest ripples on water, while the simple, elegant design captures a wabi-sabi sense of natural harmony. Relaxing to knit and pleasing to wear, it’s a project that brings a touch of serenity to your hands.
Construction
The gloves are worked from the bottom up. The back of the hand features a 3-stitch cable, while the palm is worked in smooth stockinette stitch.
Included in the pattern
