TOM'S SANQUHAR GLOVES.


This is Tom van Deijnen, a brilliant glove knitter. Here he is with one glove, knitted to try out the pattern, with some yarn he bought from Lidl. The pattern is a Sanquhar glove from the Future Museum, which you can down load from the internet.Tom chose blue and grouse Shetland Spindrift to knit the real pair, and stayed up very late last night knitting this beautiful sample. The blue makes the red flecks in the grouse jump out, and it looks so handsome, that we look forward to congratulating him by shaking his glove, when he's finished.
