Mitten Blocker
The perfect tool to ensure your knit mittens fit perfectly. These mitten blockers were designed after Aleks wrote her colourwork mitten book, Color & Knit Mittens. They will help ensure that your beautiful mittens, especially those knit with stranded colourwork, come out with even tension and fit perfectly for the knit worthy wearer. You want to make sure those colourwork floats aren’t too tight that you struggle to get on your cozy mittens!
These blockers feature a beautiful cut out pattern inspired by Estonian glove patterns from the parish of Mustjala. Not only do the cut outs make for a gorgeous tool, but they ensure that air flows through your wet blocking mitten so it will dry quicker!
You’ll receive a pair of gorgeous blockers with thumbs attached by twine. The thumbs are separate to allow easy mobility as you pull your wet mitten onto the blocker. It also means that you can use each blocker without a distinct left or right hand. Each blocker also has an etched line to mark the placement for the thumbs. It serves as a handy feature to use the blocker to test the fit of your mitten in terms of when to place the thumbs especially when gift knitting for others.
Every pair of blockers is meticulously laser cut in Estonia from birch veneer. They are cut in a small studio with precision and care.
The blockers are available in 3 sizes.
