This pattern is also available as a part of The Findhorn Mittens Kit at The Woolly Thistle.

The Findhorn Mittens were designed by Corinne, TWT Owner. The Findhorn Mittens are named for the lovely wee seaside village of Scotland’s northeast coast; a place shaped by salt air, shifting dunes, and a deep sense of community. Once a traditional fishing village and later home to an RAF base and a renowned spiritual commune, Findhorn has a quiet, enduring strength. These mittens are a tribute to that spirit, a small reminder of salt air, simple beauty, and the quiet power of community.
