Dealas

Introducing Dealas, which translates to 'commitment' in Scottish Gaelic—a beautifully crafted pair of mitts that feature a distinctive diagonal textured pattern across the back of each hand. These exquisite mitts are a perfect companion to my acclaimed Socks in Love collection, blending style with functionality. With their simple elegance, Dealas mitts are not only a pleasure to knit but also a quick and rewarding project. Available in six sizes, they are designed to fit everyone from teens to adults, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the warmth and comfort these mitts provide.

This comprehensive knitting pattern comes with fully written instructions and includes a detailed photo tutorial showcasing a super stretchy cast-on technique. Specifically, the pattern features the Estonian cast-on method for the bottom of the glove as well as the backward loop cast-on, both of which add flair and flexibility. The Dealas mitts pattern has been thoroughly tech-edited and test knitted to guarantee a seamless experience for knitters at any level.
