Kylm

The Kylm (Estonian for Cold) fingerless mitts is designed to accompany the Meelespea cowl or the Jasper cowl. The Jasper cowl pattern was first published in the British Fibre Art magazine issue 23.

The fingerless mitts are knitted in rounds, in mosaic knitting. Mosaic is easy to knit, one colour at a time and creates an interesting, slightly textured fabric. The cuff is worked in faux corrugated rib, using just one of the yarns at a time. If you are experienced at stranded knitting, you can work corrugated rib, as usual, handling both yarns at the same time. The width and length can be easily adjusted, working more or fewer repeats/motifs. The pattern uses metric and imperial systems. The mosaic pattern is fully charted, including the gusset.
