Andromède Mittens (Eng)

Andromède is the delicacy of mohair caught up with the rusticity of Léttlopi. It is stars embroidered one by one in linen thread. It is the simple joy of having a pair of warm, magical mittens within reach.

MATERIALS

– Approximately 100 g of Istex Léttlopi (100 m / 50 g) or equivalent yarn;

– Approximately 25 g of Knitting for Olive mohair or equivalent (225 m / 25 g) for the lining;
