Huron Wristers

Greetings & a happy December!

Here’s a sneak peek at the new wrister pattern in test stitching stage; the wool is from Steele Wool Farm. The colour-work portion is inspired by the fair isle pattern of vintage knit gloves in the collection of the Huron County Museum.

Once the pattern is finalized, a kit will be available for purchase. Stay tuned as this idea is under development!
