They are easy to work and suitable for a range of hand sizes. Wool is the original technical fiber and we put our samples to the test during out photo shoot where they ended up stained with oil after working with a chainsaw. A short soak in some warm water with a drop of Dawn dish soap and they were as good as new. We wanted an everyday approach to working with and wearing wool. Handknits don't just have to be for special occasions, they can be a useful and hard-wearing part of our everyday lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTE:\u003c\/strong\u003e This pattern is worked from the bottom-up. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\" data-mce-style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePATTERN INFORMATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eDIFFICULTY: 2\/5\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISHED MEASUREMENTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFULL LENGTH: 6\" \/15 cm long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHAND CIRCUMFERENCE: 7 ¼\" \/ 18.5 cm to fit 7–8\" \/ 18–20.5 cm hand circumference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTHUMB: 1 ¼\" \/ 3 cm long from top of gusset to bind off.
