Hand knitted fingerless mittens and wrist warmers designed for artists when sketching.

Sketching Mitts

Sketching Mitts are the perfect choice for artists who wish to maintain their creativity even when faced with less-than ideal weather conditions. Cold hands can easily be enough thwart your creativity. Let’s not let that happen!

The beauty of Sketching Mitts lies in their ability to keep your hands and wrists warm while your fingertips remain free and unrestricted. Wearing fingerless gloves or wrist warmers you are able to maintain delicate control of your pencil, pen or brush, allowing your creativity to thrive even on the chilliest of days.

Siân’s inspiration for her Sketching Mitts comes initially from the gorgeous textures and colours of yarns… painting with wool! As an experienced knitter and as an artist herself her designs always keep in mind the practical attributes of the different styles she creates. Sian’s yarns are chosen with eco-friendliness very much in mind. Many of Siân’s fingerless gloves start with a delve through her stash of oddments left over from previous knitting projects, combining colours and textures into charming designs that evolve as she knits. Each delightful pair is genuinely unique!

An excellent Christmas present, or a treat for yourself!

Also useful for texting, dog walking, gardening, shopping,…

The clever design of the Sketching Mitts uses the luxurious super-soft, chunky yarn to create a versatile accessory for chilly days.

The choice of knitted stitch gives a texture which enhances the natural insulating properties of the yarn, and gives a springinesss and flexibility which allows them to be worn in various ways.

Scrunched up they are extra cosy wrist warmers, allowing maximum freedom for your fingers while still keeping your hands warm.

For those moments when you need a little more warmth they can be pulled out to extend over your fingers. By taking advantage of the hidden thumb hole in the subtle seam, they are held in place while enabling your fingers to comfortably hold a pencil.

Whether you choose to scrunch them up or extend them, the luxurious feel of these Sketching Mitts means that you will not want to take them off!

SIZE  The mittens are designed to fit an average ladies hand. Knitted fabrics are both snug and stretchy in nature, easily adapting to a variety of hand shapes and sizes, providing a comfortable and snug fit for everyone.

YARN These mitts were made using a very soft chunky weight yarn with a luxurious feel. They are flexible enough to scrunch up to wear as a wrist warmer, and stretchy enough to use as a fingerless mitten.

COLOUR The colour is a rich mix of bright blues and turquoise, with hints of sea green. There is a gentle change of colour change along the length of the yarn, creating alluring and unpredictable stripes. No two stripes will ever be the same,  ensuring each mitten is truly unique. (Please note that the actual colour of the gloves may differ for their appearance on screen)

CARE INSTRUCTIONS Treat as pure wool. Gently hand wash in cool water. Do not wring. Re-shape while damp. Dry flat. Do not tumble dry.
