HFX Mitten Pattern
$0.00
Forget tattoos. This generation wears its grit in wool. Hold Fast is knit right into these mittens, designed by Une Cecilie Oksvold, known for her bright knits. A pair of mittens is now onboard with Ella Hibbert as she attempts a world record, sailing solo around the Arctic. It is a story worth wearing.
The idea started with the traditional sailor’s tattoo, once made to endure stormsvat sea. We reimagined them for HFX as wool anchors for a new generation: practical, simple, and designed to last.
The pattern is free to download in both Norwegian and English, so you can knit your own. Choose sustainable wool and you’ll have mittens that keep their shape, stay warm even when damp, and only get better with time.
