Margrethe Mittens

Margrethe Mittens are a pair of unisex mittens with a daisy pattern in honor of Queen Margrethe II, which are perfect for autumn and winter use. The mittens can be knitted in three different sizes: 1 (2) 3. Note: The mittens are knitted in wool/alpaca, which means that the mittens filter and shrink in general use.  The mittens in the picture are knitted in Peruvian Highland (Fine) from Mumilumi White (pattern color 1), Rust (ground color) and Yellow (pattern color 2).
