The fingerless mitts are named after the Danish Sunday pastime of heading into the woods - the name translates literally to ‘forest trip’.

The mitts have bands of stylised Nordic colourwork patterns and a knitted-on thumb gusset. They are easy to customise - make them as long or short as you like - and use two colours of a warm Nordic wool.

Perfect for a brisk walk through the woods.

Skovtur is the second pattern in the Hygge - Knit the Things You Love to Wear collection. Available as part of the collection or as a stand-alone pattern.
