For the LOTR fans, Estel is the Sindarin word for hope, and the name Aragorn was raised with to hide his lineage. I see both flowers and stars in this design, both of which bring me hope.

This pattern is suitable for the knitter with experience reading a chart and stranded colorwork.

Finished mitten is 7.5 inches in circumference and 10.5 inches from edge to tip. Ribbing accounts for 2.5 inches of length.

I used 2 skeins of Midnight and 1 skein of Aqua.

Please note that if you would like to knit the matching Estel Cowl and Estel Tam you will need a total of 4 skeins of Midnight and 3 skeins of Aqua.

You can knit coordinating socks, too! Estel Socks
