Sanquhar Gloves in the Drum Pattern
Knitted gloves featuring a checkerboard of alternating diamonds. Knitted in the classic Drum pattern, these Sanquhar Gloves feature a bold graphic pattern in black and stark white.
These are a modern interpretation based on a study of a historical pair. The style originates in the town of Sanquhar in Dumfrieshire in southern Scotland.
