Knitted with three colored yarn in traditional Estonian fair-isle style. The yarns are hand died and 100% wool. Tightly knitted using 0-size needles and DK-weight yarn, they are perfect to block wind and wear in winter.
This pattern comes from Meremäe in historic Setomaa in South-East ESTONIA. Tight ribbing, knitted with twisted stitches, make it warm holding the cuffs snug around your hand.
Setos are an ethnic and linguistic minority living in an area covering South-East Estonia and West of Pskov Region in Russia. Setumaa will appeal to anybody interested in different cultures, religion and traditions - with its beautiful nature Setumaa is well worth a visit.
