Knitting Pattern: Keisarinna Mittens (by Heli Hottinen-Puukko)
The patterning on the mittens replicates the cable and bobble pattern of the Keisarinna vest.
The pattern for the Keisarinna mittens was previously published in Beloved Patterns & Aarikka knitting magazine, where the inspiration came from Aarikka's jewelry, textiles, and home decor items.
