Please note that these mittens are exclusive to The Selbu Mitten Club III which can be purchased here.

Sildra features several characteristics of what most people think of as a Selbu mitten nowadays: the striped cuff, the two stacked ‘Selbu roses’ and the diamon grid in the palm, to name a few. The mittens work up quickly, and the pattern gives you row-by-row instructions that make these a suitable introductory mitten design.
