Mitten Patterns
By Robin Hansen
|
Robin Hansen can justifiably claim to be the person who started the groundswell of interest in
"roots" knitting patterns for mittens. When Fox & Geese & Fences: A Collection of Traditional
Maine Mittens was published a generation ago, it was an instant success. And nary a knitter above the age of thirty
has not heard of it. It was followed by a second, equally inspiring collection: Flying Geese & Partridge Feet:
More Mittens from Up North & Down East. Here now is a compilation of some of the most popular traditional designs
from Robin’s groundbreaking first two books; presenting these tried-and-true patterns in a new format, with
step-by-step directions revised and updated for ease of knitting, thanks to the helpful feedback Robin has
gotten from the knitters who flock to her workshops all around the country.
