Norðurljós (northern lights) - pdf pattern

note: this purchase is for a pdf pattern. you will receive a download link upon purchase.

for those who live in far northern reaches of the globe, there is always the gentle promise of aurora borealis, or northern lights. these playful and almost otherworldly creations grace us with their presence every once in a while, dancing across the sky for lucky eyes to see. not everyone gets so lucky, but you can capture their movements across your hands with these mittens (which, incidentally, will keep your fingers warm in case you end up spying the real northern lights on a walk home in brisk winter air). use yoth’s rich thyme colourway for brighter lights, or go more subtle if you prefer just a whisper.
