The design is also available as a yarn kit by fraukuhn.

Ostermundigen is a modern unisex design using basic techniques and intelligent shaping to create well-fitting mittens. It is a quick project to make and is ideal for using up stash and/or yarn leftovers.

Instructions are given in written abbreviated form and US terms.

Ostermundigen is part of the city of Bern. This is my home base, a vibrant and close-to-nature residential area. It features a great view of the Bernese mountains and many options for long walks in nature.
