Dealas
£5.50
Dealas, meaning commitment in Scottish Gaelic, feature a diagonal textured pattern across the back of each hand. They are a companion to my Socks in Love collection. With a simple elegance, these mitts are a quick and easy knit and with six sizes they’ll fit everyone from teen to adult.
The pattern is fully written instructions and also includes a photo tutorial for a super stretchy cast on called the Estonian cast-on for the bottom of the glove and the backward loop cast-on. The pattern has been tech edited and test knitted. There’s a screenshot of the pattern, and a list of the stitches used at the bottom of the photos. These additional techniques are used: picking up stitches.
