Narbeth Mitts Pattern by Aleks Byrd

By Aleks Byrd

The striking weaving patterns of Wales and Estonia inspired this geometric design, which is named after a village in Wales filled with treasured woven textiles in antiques shops. It’s perfect for knitting a modern piece in bold colours, or going for a more subtle effect.

Complete the look with a Narbeth Cowl!
