It’s funny how seemingly simple words can evolve into different but related concepts over time. The Latin verb “lustro” referred to the circular movements priests made during a ritual purification. The word has since evolved into concepts in Italian, Spanish, Polish, and English that range from “to shine” to “a mirror” to “a five year period.” Similarly, these accessories mix standard ideas—mostly stockinette stitch, with a little eyelet trimwork—to create a new set of knit ideas.
